Wishing you all the best anyway

Well the initial plan was to wait 6 months after my last hallucination and I was begging to go off the meds at every session, then I tried and failed because I just couldn't handle the irritation/anxiety. I decided to be medicated was better than that so strangely while I am afraid of becoming delusional again its that irritation/anxiety that I really want to avoid, but like you said I can always go back on as long as I don't lose control. Anyway to placate myself at the time I told myself I'd try again in a year and now its been a year so the pdoc is holding me to my own statement. I originally said these aren't candy and he used the same words against me a year later. I have no idea how he even remembers that with how many patients he has or if its just something he says. Anyway I figure it's worth a shot at this point, we can always adjust the meds. Thanks for your help, I'll consult with the pdoc about the no taper method, but we'll probably just do a really short taper like a week.
