I couldn't tell you on the second. But its not a good idea to go off meds. At least for me. I want to so bad but these pills keep me semi-sane. I was very bad off before them.
I think you have to weigh the pros and cons. Especially if there's psychotic symptoms you're dealing with. Can you handle your swings legitimately without??

Another side to the question is can the people important to her can handle it if she were to go off her meds, like husband and child, family, and possible employers. And any "message" from God that tells her to do something potentially this self-destructive should be questioned. IMVHO if this were me, I do not believe God would never "tell" me to do something like this. But I do respect her beliefs. This decision and her spiritual briefs I do understand are her personal choice. It is just that I would be very careful with thoughts like that because there is too much at stake for herself and others that are close to her. She is in the position where she can cause havoc and damage to her AND other peoples lives.
I wish her the best! I really do!
