> I think 6 months after full remission you are considered "recovered", you know how they want you to continue taking ADs 6 months after remission to prevent a relapse, this is probably based on some studies.
Thanks, vanvog. I can't see ever getting off meds, though. It seems way too dicey. I've also been on meds for years--I haven't been med-free in a very long time.
I would think most of us who have suffered for a long time probably stay on meds indefinitely to maintain remission...
