Phillipa asked a good question--what's your dx? Have you been drug-free anytime in the 20 years?
It seems stabilizing off meds might take longer than a few months. Someone here might be able to be more definitive.
I like the idea of finding someone else you like. Not easy when depressed. At least for another perspective or opinion.
One of my favorite questions that I ask myself is have meds ruined my brain. I counter with the damage caused by my years of untreated anxiety, insomnia, and depression. Not to mention the awful place I got to before I accepted my condition as serious.
Good luck, and courage.
(Depressed as you may be, you have your humor. )
MDD currently controlled. C-ptsd and comorbid health concerns. Chronic fatigue.
