Dear lybrate-user, Please do not stop medication without consulting psychiatrist. You may have some concerns about your medicine but you can always discuss with your doctor. Self-medication and decision about stopping medicine can contribute to the relapse. Please do take an appointment with a psychologist which will help you to develop the behavioral skill sets and you will learn to cope up with the dysfunctional thoughts and moods ups & down etc. For further info feel free to contact.
