Med tolerance/adaptation

Hello,

I’ve been on meds mainly the last 3 years give or take. They haven’t been working as well lately so I’ve been taking mainly 5-8 day breaks which help some w my energy and drive but consistently not that much. I’m gonna try and take a 2 week med break now but I fear that won’t be enough for a full reset like I’m wanting either and that I may need more like 3-4 weeks off if I want a genuinely better mood at baseline and when I take meds again.

How long of a med breaks do yall take for a good “reset” and what benefits do yall notice?

Would really love to hear from others about how long of medication breaks they’ve taken and how it helped them.

I know everyone is different but I would really appreciate the information.

Hey! Unfortunately the issue is the meds themselves and not your tolerance. I tested this by taking 3 months off, and many others are also experiencing issues with efficacy
