My point wasn't that people shouldn't do what's right for them. It was that for many people these medications make a huge difference and without them they they might find themselves suffering from things like depression, anxiety, isolation, etc.

That's prob beyond you, tho.

Yeah you're right and that's great for them, but I'm not part of that group

Also, For many people these medications destroy their bodies and lives. The world isn't black and white

Not when administered by a health care professional and properly monitored
