Sudden withdrawal from steroids can sometimes cause psychosis. Otherwise, your body should begin producing its own steroids as steroidal medication is withdrawn. The side effects from the steroids, such as moon face, hunger, hypertension and central obesity, will subside. Going off steroids is often more pleasant than being on them.
