I don't know quite how to put this without sounding condescending - please try not to take it that way, as I have been very bad with my phrasing lately. (It's probably the meds. :))

Do you think that this is a sign of the current over-medication of our society, expecially with AD's? That those who go off the meds, and then actually do Better, don't really have the big Depression? As a manic depressive, I have found that I absolutely cannot go off meds, and this is very difficult for me to admit. I turn into an overly-senstized psychotic without a stabilizer. Paranoia starts to play in (friends are out to get me), hallucinations, such vast agitated depression I come close to suicide. Someone like myself really must take meds.

But, then again, for those who aren't "at that extreme", I can certainly understand wanting to stop meds. Just be careful and have someone supervise you, even after the process.
