Poll: Are you on meds?

Have you got some meds physically nearby like in the house in case you want to go back on them?

No, I got rid of all them. I have buspar and asprin available just in case I have a terrible anxiety attack.

The best advice I can give you is to see your doctor straight away, the second best advice I can give you is to get some meds physically nearby you in the house. I came off meds myself recently. The sudden withdrawal can make you psychotic and you might end up harming yourself.

Get yourself to hospital immediately if things start to go wrong and they can give you emergency meds if you decide not to see your doctor.

I agree with everhopeful, try to get some meds near by. I’ve relapsed so many times sometimes on meds most of the time off. The sudden withdrawal alone can cause psychosis. And the dose that worked before won’t work again so you will need stronger and stronger meds. But overall it’s your choice.

I’ve never relapsed before (finger crossed).
Normally I was forced back on my medication up until last year when I turned 18.
I want a Normal life, my life is more normal with the voices, delusion, and hallucinations then it ever was when I was held prisoner by medication. Maybe that is the sz talking but I’m honestly much happier off my meds for the most part.
BUT I’ll take the advice and get some medication near me just incase. Hopefully all goes well.
