Looking for a research project to understand qualitative experiential research on patient experiences with being on psychiatric medication for an extended period and then stopping with the guidance of a psychiatrist and contrasting with stopping on their own and the resulting experience. To what extent can patients with a range of symptoms respond well when taken off medications? Specially interested in mindfulness or other practices as an alternative path for these patients.

The time of action of the drugs until they reach their effectiveness, is very varied according to the severity of the symptoms to be treated and the nature of the drug itself, so it is very important to have this information to adjust expectations and also be patient and continue taking what that we have been prescribed when we still do not see results. It is not appropriate to change or suspend an established pharmacological treatment without first consulting with the doctor.
In this context, I suggest some contributions in this regard:
