I think there are pros and cons to having a thread for discontinuing psych meds, there are many reasons people decide to stop meds..

As many of you know I have been Med free since March of last year. At times it’s been a big struggle.

I have gotten some nasty remarks about my posting that I am off meds. But I am very careful when talking about it so being basically attacked wasn’t pleasant nor warranted.

I certainly do not wander this forum promoting everyone try Med free because it’s really a big decision and hard work.

People with Bipolar do have a higher rate of stopping meds because Hypo is like a drug.

I think a Sticky for our forum would be very helpful because the one on the psych meds forum gets very little traffic.

Thank you
