I don't really see the deep talking, and the deep support that really helps. We are making threads about chemical imbalance, to try and explain our depression. I think it's absolutely going in the wrong direction, and that's someone saying these assumptions who is actually coming out of the hole, and made a LOT of progress. So I let myself be honest and cruel because I have the experience and fundaments for it.

Perhaps if you made so much progress you wouldn't feel the need to be cruel as that does not solve anything. Like I said I think there are various factors and one includes people implying its 'wrong' to get help for mental illness symptoms and that only treatments that treat 'causes' when its actually a combination of various factors that contribute to mental illnesses and disorders...its already hard enough without getting people on your back about which treatment options you choose.
I don't see why people have to be so pushy about their opinions, I don't go telling people the ought to be on meds if they are uncomfortable with it...or anything like that. I've had bad experiances with them, so I can see why people are hesitant to want to go that route and why people encourage other potentially healthier treatment options but it should be an individual choice with no stigma either way.
