Hi RR.
> Just a thought on worrying about being on the meds forever. If you like it, try it. If not ... no loss.
I'm not sure what you mean here. Are you suggesting to discontinue worrying or to discontinue taking medication?
Where biological issues predominate, there can be an enormous loss when discontinuing a medication that is working well. It often occurs that one does not respond as well once the medication is restarted.
The decision as to whether or not to experiment and discontinue medication involves multiple factors, including frequency of recurrences, symptomology, and family history.
