How do you know it's not the meds causing problems rather than the stopping? Most likely the pdoc does not know. It's all improvised. They rx one drug, then another to deal with the first one's shortcomings or side effects, then another, then another. It's impossible to predict effects on a given person's brain from this kind of polypharmacy.
