If you're functioning well, I wonder why the doctor is suggesting a medication change?
Personally speaking, when i'm doing good, I'll only see a psychiatirst once a year, every 6 months, just for a routine check up. Never change meds, although have come off them in the past or reduced dosages if things are that good.
Its usually when things have been really not good, that its time for a medication change.
Perhaps ask the doctor what is his rationale in withdrawing you from one medication on to another - what does he hope to achieve that you're not experiencing now from current treatment.
