I appreciate your point of view. For me, I have needed medications and therapy to be who I really am. When I am depressed or manic I feel terrible and do things to hurt myself. That is not me. My meds helped me find myself. On the other hand, meds can be a really bad thing when you are on the wrong ones, or are on too little or too much. There are times I truly feel like a guinea pig. But the professionals I work with are truly exceptional in that they are real people and treat me with respect and admiration. So while I completely appreciate your views, they just don't hold true for me. But best of luck to you. I wish you only the best

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
