leeann,
You wrote,[...am interested in adverse effects of discontinueing psychotropic drugs and how long do they last...].
I am glad that you are taking the steps to consider discontinueing the psychotropic drugs. I believe that if one prepares themselves, like you are doing, that the discontinuation of the drugs could be accomplished with, perhaps, less chance to relapse and reinstituteing the drug, because I feel that one is more determined to complete the discontinuation when they have a well-thought-out plan in place to begin the discontinuation verses those that have no plan at all, but no plan at all except to quit, is also a plan in and of itself. But there is a body of knowlege concerning your situation that could be of benifit to those wanting to discontinue psychotropic drugs.
