I like to look at it this way. The medication I'm taking is due to 100s of years of bright people - doctors, scientists, nurses, caretakers and patients - discovering how they can help to improve others quality of life.
The meds are there to assist you to be your best the same way some people need meds for any other illness or medical devices. To accept treatment for an illness that's still heavily stigmatized in society shows your strength to keep going, it doesn't show you to be weak. You should feel proud of yourself, you're doing a good thing for yourself and you deserve the best.
