I want off my meds too, but I'm going to stay on them anyway.
Cons are side effects, particularly oversleeping and the long-term fear of TD.
Pros are that my mood is stable and my psychosis is minimal. Whether or not that has to do with taking medication, I can only find out by stopping meds. If the meds have indeed caused the stability, then going off meds could be disasterous.
