How long does it take for brain function to return to normal after ceasing 3 or more years of psychiatric medication?
There is no "normal"
Once
upon a time, it was normal to believe in fairies. If you do now, they
lock you away - unless you're an artist because we still allow
artists to be "weird" and get away with it.
Your
brain is not static.
It
learns from every experience and re-shapes itself to better handle
similar experiences. So your brain wasn't normal to begin with
because no one's brain is normal.
Now
let me ask you a question:
Why
would you want to return to a situation that wasn't healthy for you?
Whatever
was "normal" for you before your medication wasn't working
- it wasn't enhancing your life. You must now be in a better position
because you haven't needed that medication for 3 years. So this
should be your new "normal". Whatever was missing before
has been resolved. You don't need to go back to anything.
