med-free is an option for some people. Even a lot of people labeled with 'schizophrenia' end up off psych drugs and functioning remarkably well, all things considered.
where I'm at right now...there's pressure to stay medicated. Could be worse. I haven't been in a mental hospital in over 10 years, and my treatment status is "voluntary outpatient," so I"ve been spared the injections and such they put some people on, and yet...
not only do I support your decision to make a go of life w/o psych drugs, I'm kind of hoping to get there myself, one day.
