It takes time for a AP and Mood stabilizer to Leave the body completely then your brain has to go back working sans meds

Meds take time to work so it takes time to get off them and truly be med free. I quit lithium and I swear it took almost 3 months to get over it.

Check the half life of meds and general add 1-2 months to show what going with out meds will really leave you.

Safe landing
