Stopping all meds cold turkey without close medical supervision is dangerous and foolish, although bipolars do it all the time because we think we don't need them anymore. (And sometimes we're right.) I can't imagine why your doctor suggested that.

I don't know how many or what kind of meds you're taking, but going off them outside of a hospital where you can receive intensive monitoring? NOT a good idea. I think you need a second opinion immediately......your own pdoc seems not to have your best interests at heart.
