Is It Possible To Stop Taking My Medication If I Am Happy And Feel I Don’t Need It Anymore?

I met someone who means a lot to me. He has the ability to make me smile and be happy. Feeling this lucky by being loved by the right person, will I still be dependent on the medication?

You may lose this person if your off your medication. Be very careful. I want to get off my meds too but I think about the depression and the mania and I forget that thought right away. There's a reason your on medication think about it.

Yes to keep yourself stable and moods. If you go off your medication you will be totally different person. I went through that myself. I thought I could not handle my medication any longer. Because I felt I was better for that person.
