Hi.. before thinking of withdrawing the medicines it should be seen if your symptoms have subsided. Hence consult your treating Psychiatrist for the same and discuss regarding the same.

The medications would have been started by your doctor with some rationale of ongoing issues and symptomatology
The opinion for stopping treatment would be best decided by your treating psychiatrist - by gradually tapering down the doses
Kindly do not self medicate
