I would also like to try to live without meds and it looks like those of us who do, work very hard to make a go of it (sleep hygiene, mood diary etc). I would be prepared to put the work in but my husband would probably leave me if I came off the meds. Also my psychiatrist believes that all my 3 meds are necessary. Without support I don't think I can do it but maybe in the future I may have the opportunity to stop some of them. I am currently struggling with a thyroid problem induced by one bipolar medication. Thats the problem that they are just not good for the body, only for the mind...
