yeah, that's my perspective, too. right now, im trying to do the "alternative" health thing along w/ "standard treatment." seems to help. I"d like to one day be able to taper off the psych drugs, and just...live. nothing againt psych drugs or those who take them, for whatever reasons. its more about what i've seen from mental health "professionals" that makes me want to try to make a somewhat graceful exit from the "patient role," eventually.
