I need to feel in control amd I currently don't I feel they are all in control of me and they will make me take the meds. I'm dithering about telling my professionals I'm off meds as I just know they are gonna make me take them

Are you on any sort of community treatment order or are you just worried that your professionals will drop you if you’re not on meds. I know my pdoc is pretty much for med management only and would drop me if I were entirely off meds.
I’m not sure where you’re located but cbt can minimize some symptoms, but I’ll warn you if meds are 90% cbt is like 10%. There are some countries where medicine is a last resort…Called open dialogue in Lapland Finland….you might want to look into the process
