A member asked:
I have stopped my mood stabilizers and antidepressants...how long will it take for my body and mind to adjust, without the medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be careful: It depends on which drugs you were on, the dosage and how long you were taking them. You should not stop these medications abruptly and any decrease in dosage should be under a doctor's observation and suggestions.
