Doctors will tell you to take your meds regardless. But you are the one living in your body.
For me it was the right decision to stop. But the doctor would never have agreed. The cumulative side effect profile was making it harder and harder to get through life.
If a doctor thinks that you're sick, then he won't trust your intuition. In some cases that reasoning may be justified, but in other cases your intuition can be beneficial.
You just need to be sure that your decision is based on the right reasons.
If you are in a rush, and want to stop everything cold turkey, then that might be a sign that it is a rash decision.
