WITHDRAWAL

The medication that helps me to feel balanced and emotionally stable can cause serious side effects when or if I decide to completely stop taking the medication. The side effects will come into focus full force. That means I might experience severe headaches, upset stomach, shaking or trembling, erratic thinking, fuzzy mind, etc. Although I have never had these problems because I have never gone off medication “cold turkey” I understand that it is true. I have had trouble with migraine headaches in the past and they are not fun. Why would I chance a serious headache, or for that matter any thing else, by going off all my medication all at once?
