Sleep is a very important part of anyone's life more so a bipolar person. You can come off of medication if you combine medication with therapy and do not have any relapses or breakdowns for three years at least. Then your doctor will wean you off of your medication with careful monitoring.

Dear lybrate-user, Stopping medicines does not depend only on the hours of sleep. There are many other aspects to consider. Needs to know the severity of your disorder, the phase of your disorder, etc. Please discuss with your psychiatrist about it. Please go along with a family member who will help you in making a decision.
