    Good question, I seem to have mainly been on and off meds all my life too. But I have spent long times without them. The problem for mw is that meds don't seem to make much difference to my anxiety so I don't know why I even bother, but sometimes I'm just so bad that I'm prepared to do anything and at the beginning it seems to take the edge off my anxiety but it soon returns
