I hear you about the "unprotected" feeling. After 10 years of meds, sometimes as many as 5 at the same time, all I'm on right now is a measly 2.5mg zyprexa. Some days I'm better, some days worse, but I do feel that anything could happen and the floor might just drop out from under me at any time. I think getting used to living without meds and getting some confidence is something that can take some time, at least for me anyway.
Lots of meds make me feel worse. Out of maybe 20 meds, prozac was the only one that really had me feeling decent. So many others had me feeling worse. It's my guess and just an opinion that when that kind of pattern happens, it might be a clue that something else is wrong besides brain chemistry...adrenal gland exhaustion, thyroid function, hormones, psychosocial issues, spiritual issues, stuff like that.
