Bridgemar,
I to took meds for a long time, almost 8 yrs total. But after getting the program, i found i could actually help myself without the meds,, not say meds are bad, they help in extreme stressful situations,, but by what you said, you were doing better without them.
Sometimes we dont need them long, and can just taper off them. There are those who need meds all the time,, and thats okay to. But, if you personally feel you can deal with whats going on in your life, without meds, and by just using the skills of the program,, then do that!!! I know doctors are well meaning, and all, but we actually KNOW ourselves better than anyone else Nelly

I know you have been going to this doctor for a long time, but you might want to get the second opinion of a doctor who is not so medication happy. My doctor is not a big lover of medications. I take them but it will not be a forever kind of deal.
