I quit meds after moving away from my pdoc. I liked him a lot but didn't really have an emotional attachment to him. Taking meds is always our decision to make. Sometimes it's good to go back to square one and see what we are like without meds.

I'm wondering what you wish he had replied?
It sounds like maybe you wanted him to be concerned and try to talk you out of not taking meds, maybe? But you stated to him that was what you are going to do.

But his response to what you said,"I'm glad I could help" also sounds defensive, as one might feel if they were being fired for failure.
