I’ll give you an example
I decided to quit Lithium. I’m am all or nothing type. I had quit many AP’s and didn’t so much as have a hiccup
Anyway stopping Lithium cold turkey,, good grief I was so freaking sick for weeks.
You have to factor in half life into stopping meds , just because you quit Med X on Monday doesn’t mean it’s totally out of your system by Friday.. some meds have a few weeks half life.
Then your brain has to learn how to function sans meds.
It took about 3 months off Lithium to where I actually felt ok and my brain was truly back.
