I also wouldn't worry about going off meds just yet. I think you mentioned you're in your late 20's? That's a stressful time in general, regarding career, not be quite settled yet, and thinking about having a family. If you're mentally in a decent place, stay on what you're taking, find a good pdoc, and start planning where you'd like to live and what you'd like to do. I know, stressful! But, baby steps. No need to be stressed over whether or not to take meds if they're not causing any problems.
