Is it normal to be taken off the meds and finally move on with your life?

I've been taken off the meds, that was when I stopped being a perfectionist for a little while, and now I'm a perfectionist again, I'm no longer required to take meds, I don't have to take brain medicine, and all these years of anger, all these years of fighting to get off the meds (they medicate perfectionists, and as for perfectionism, nobody cares!), now that I'm a perfectionist again I'm going to find ways to have a good life, by making myself perfect and justifying perfection. I'm relieved, a false happiness, I'm glad that that's over! Now I can act as quirky as I like, but I choose not to be, I choose to be an atheist, antitheist, nontheist, and anticlerical, I choose to do what a lot of people are doing, e.g. patriotism, I choose to be a true blue Aussie (and dreamt of being in the USA). The lack of delusional thinking I would have to say is a reason to stay off the meds, the doctor said I don't have to take them, and told me I can take them whenever I feel stressed out or feel that I need them, nice! That was the same doctor who used to inject me and now he's got his sympathies for me, so now he's convinced I'm a sane person. Is that normal?

          I have no idea, mate, but it was putting me to sleep.

    Aha! So you do admit you needed the lithium McBean has been insisting on.

      Not really, but my medicine becomes an option. When I say smart people aren't crazy, that they're sane, I mean it. There's no such thing as a diagnosis, and there's no such thing as neurons not connecting, they just connect different. I can't have any diagnostic criteria once I'm off the meds, I'm not a problem and this is what I call the unexplained. My anti-perfectionism led to being taken off the meds, but fuck anti-perfectionism, I'm not wasting my time with doctors and being medicated after being a perfectionist anymore, once I'm off the meds I can be absolutely a perfectionist. But for who you are the doctors are playing that game, just for choosing to be something they medicate you, well in that case, fuck normal, normal was the struggle of my meds in the first place, I'd rather be rare, quirky and a freak, which is safe when off the meds!

        Love, I'm rare, quirky and a freak but I love my meds. They take away the part of me that makes me a volcano! And that's a good thing.

          Gotta hate your meds, the meds were making me humiliated, frustrated, angry and miserable.

    Well you only live once but you seem a little dysfunctional. No one can tell you what to do. Just be nice to animals.
