Nobody is %100 ok in life , but a mentally ill person can reach at best %70 , in remission. A shrink or GP wont change you meds till you hit %50 that's the time to worry about a change of meds . You can have lows and high,s in between like the normal,s do , but a steady decline is when the alarm goes off. You can have 1 major depressive episode in your life and maybe get off meds, but if you have2 or 3 or more its usually a sign your screwed for life.
