I see kindling theory this way... you do nothing, it WILL get worse. But taking meds and not doing anything to fix your life is pretty much "nothing". Meds can lessen intensity of your emotions/feelings/whatnot... but they cannot make you motivated, there's no social-grace-in-pill (when it comes out, I order a truckfull, please). Meds will not make you stay in place where you should be when you feel like running and will not make you leave when it's time to go... Meds will not make you appreciate good people more and to avoid abusive assholes. Meds will probably not give you self-confidence (at least not in itself).

If you don't do things to help yourself... and to fix unhealthy patterns... yes, it will get worse.

Meds are secondary here.

That's my view and mine only of course, but well...
