So far, I've needed meds as a bridge to get me from acute symptoms back to a state where I have greater awareness and ability to see my mental state more clearly. I weaned off and I'm stable. I'm transforming the factors in my life that contributed to my instability and I hope to manage without meds in the future. I would most definitely be open to meds again in the though should I find myself in a state where I am unable to thrive on my own.
