I think it depends on the individual and the condition being treated. Somethings, like Bipolar, you generally need meds for life. Other things like depression, Dr's will take you off the meds, once you've been depression free for a certain period.
If you want to try life without meds, I'd have a careful discussion with your Dr., about why you want to come off them, how to do it safely, and what warning signs you need to look for that you maybe need to go back on them.
