I don't want drugs controlling me, either! One of the reasons I want to stay okay on my own & out of the hospital.

I'm sorry for what your mom went thru. I take my meds only when I want to, to manage my symptoms. The ones that have bad side effects that diminish quality of life my pdoc & I work to replace.
