Hi Pinkisfloyd...

I believe in both!!

I am not really into Psychotropic Meds, but I do take them because they help dull the sharp edges of the depression and the anxiety.

Meds really don't/cant cure mental illness (IMO) but they can help manage it. As people heal from their illnesses, it really is all their doing and hard work. The meds are just another tool that one can use to help manage the excess baggage.

Meds certainly aren't for everyone though and there are some great alternatives that one can try. I generally encourage people to go with what feels right for them!!
