Is their great future dependent on a lifetime of meds?

"A lifetime of meds."  As if thats a terrible thing, so much worse than "a lifetime of failure," or "a lifetime of drug and alcohol abuse" or "a lifetime of failed relationships."

I have very serious depression that recurred when I stopped my medication.  So I will probably have "a lifetime of meds."  Somehow I have trouble seeing why this is such a a bad thing.  I suppose you think it would be preferable to have "a lifetime of depression."

To answer your question, many kids no longer need medication when they reach adulthood; some do.

Does it make you feel good to make ignorant judgments of other people?  Does it make you feel superior?  You would be such a failure as a parent if you had my children, you would fail them with your ignorant ideology.  Either that or you would rise to the occasion and get them what they need, putting your ignorant myths aside.

Speaking of low self-esteem, you must have that in spades if you feel the need to sit back and judge others as inferior.[/quote]
How do "many kids no longer need medication when they reach adulthood"? Do they just quit when they go off to college where they can do what they want? Are they afraid of mixing the prescribed meds with recreational ones in college? [/quote]
