She wanted to put me on new meds immediately but l needed to detox l felt so unwell, so l decided to take 2wks out to heal, its been 15mths since l stopped and it took nearly 1yr to feel completely better from the toxic damage but l've remaind mentally quite stable so will stay meds free until l can't.
So far taking my vitamins and high fish oil pills are working, plus a lot of awareness of my triggers but l know there will come a time when l'll need the meds to maintain my lifestyle instead of existing in pain and thats fine with me.
