I'm off meds now. I've been on literally everything in all sorts of cocktails. They either didn't work or worked but gave me intolerable side effects like vomiting all day and akathesia.
I've tapered and done cold turkey. Both suck. The last one I quit was latuda. I was irritable for 2 weeks but last weeks started to feel better. I feel like myself again. Not like some drugged up zombie that most of the meds made me feel like.
I'm going to continue with therapy, exercise and DBT. I have coping skills I use to help me get through my cycles.
