I'm sure it wasn't meant that way, but generalized statements affect specific people if you're part of the population that's being generalized about; and I'm not shy about letting people know I don't appreciate it.
I do hear you, and agree, but again, these are separate issues. No, no one should be forced onto drugs or penalized for not taking them. But I strongly object to throwing people who
do willingly take them and benefit from psych meds, under the bus because the system itself is corrupt. It's
ableist.
I do apologize for getting off topic, but again, I feel a need to challenge these sorts of statements because I feel they're potentially very harmful and only add to the stigma against people with mental illnesses.
