As a psychiatrist. I would advise you to continue thyroxine tablet. Get thyroid antibodies tested. And watch out for signs of depression like low mood,vdecreased interest in work, decreased concentration, decrease appetite, sleeping problems, constipation.
If you have above symptoms feel free to consult.

You need to continue with thyroxine.It is a replacement hormone given in the dosage to bring the TSH to an optimal level.You keep monitoring your thyroid function tests periodically and adjust the dose according to the tsh level.

Taking or not taking medicine is in your hands. You can give only as much weightage to the medical advice as you are bothered about your health and wellbeing. Any one can take chances with his health any time.
