As I said... I take plenty of supplements myself and I am much better off with them. But I am able to ditch them temporarily when needed (for example when I travel... who wants to be caught on borders with bagful of suspicious herbs, homemade tinctures and capsules?)

I just think for a person to say "I need to be on these meds for rest of the life"... it's already setting limits on themselves and their abilities. Is it easier? Sure, if one is lucky enough to fnd drugs that help, then why not. But for many it's not the case-
