Interesting that a couple of you mention taking a med vacation...It seems like it takes such a long time to completely get them out of your system that one would truly need at least 6 months. Yes, our pdocs say 6-8 weeks or whatever...but the way the body works, it would take several months for all of our organs to filter it out. God - it even stays in your hair! Once it's completely out of your system, you'd need another 6 months to determine your reaction...oy vey...

Right now I'm off my Depakote and Serzone and am only on Wellbutrin. It does feel like a kind of vacation...things in my life are stable so I feel OK doing it at this time.
