SJB:
You don't mention having had any intense psychotherapy, although that just may have been an omission on your part. If you indeed haven't been, or aren't participating in that, I strongly suggest that you do so in light of your impending decision to go off all meds. Psychotherapy may help you to see some things in a different way, and there will be a person who you see regularly about your problems.
Just a suggestion. When I read your message, it hit home. Especially the part about being so tired of all the meds, appts, and med changes. For me, the meds take away some of my mental torture, but they make my life unmanageable in other ways, such as not being able to get out of bed because I'm so tired. It's unbelievable sometimes.
