> I need voices of reason right now. I have severe depression on both sides of my family. On my father's side of the family there are many who were downright psychotic and they had to be committed, unfortunately. I have had low grade depression for my entire life. I've been suffering from sexual compulsivity and general OCD for most of my life. I have had at least 4 major depressive episodes in my short 31 year old life.
Mental illness is progressive, so go off you meds and given you family history you are setting yourself up for an outcome just like your family.You know the answer....just do it.
