Thanks snowgoose it can be hard to discuss medication, most of the members here struggle with something and some take medication that has helped them and some choose not to take medication, and some really truely need their medication. I can only really speak for myself and if another member is on a medication and doing well, I don't dislike them for that, I am not prejudice and if medication helps them I am happy for them.

I can't blame others for not wanting to take medication either and try to do meditation or utilize other methods to self sooth or work through what may be their depressive stages of their MI. And I certainly would not want someone who is really struggling to give up either. It is a highly individual struggle and the biggest goal is to reach out for help and therapy, everyone deserves to make efforts to improve their lives.

Ofcourse if someone is so MI that they pose a real danger to themselves or others and the only thing that helps them is medication, then I feel they should be monitored and stay on medication.

Thanks for the article TheDragon.
