Side effects should pass when stopping a psych med.
While there can be withdrawal side effects, with the right tapering they can be minimized and even non-existent.
When it comes to medications, I can understand your issues with it.
If I were you I would go see a psychiatrist on some basis, and tell them about the problems. It's allot better than being treated through hospitalization since it's done through an emergency procedure without thorough evaluations.
Psychiatric medications are complicated, because they work subjectively for each individual. It can take some attempts to find a good medication.
There are people who even take a combination of medications to deal with side effects. It's complicated, but it will work in time.
That is, if you want to take psychiatric medications.

As for your family, I don't know your family history and why you need to live with your family instead with your friend, but your family should treat you with more understanding and empathy, instead of pushing the "5150"/"5250" button all the time.
Hospitalization is a procedure that can easily be misused, and overused. Your family should know better.
Thanks for this!
