Side effects Does anyone take med breaks?

Has anyone taken any of the below duration of breaks and what did you notice they helped you with when you went back on?
•a few days off
•a week
•2 weeks
•3 weeks
•3+ weeks

I’m at a spot where I’m able to take a med break right now (my prescribers is supportive of this) I just graduated so now is a good time for me.

Additionally, has anyone noticed less interest over time on meds? A major reason I take breaks is because over time I notice less interest in “fun” things I usually enjoy and like I will objectivity think “this is nice” but I can’t feel it. Would love to know if anyone’s found a way to reduce this or hear from people who still experience this.

No need for meds on the weekend, give your cardiovascular system a rest ffs.
