[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course I take antibiotics when I'm sick or ibuprofen when I'm in pain, it isn't a matter of principles or anything like that. Those medications are very different from long-term mind altering pills with a score of horrible side effects. I know people who are on these pills to cope with the side effects of those pills, which of course they have to take to deal with the effects of this and this pill... no thank you. As bad as it feels to have intense anxiety, I'm used to it and I know what's happening to me and, for whatever reason, it's natural. I refuse to believe it can't be handled naturally. In my view, those sorts of meds are a short-cut that may cause more harm than health in the long run.[/quote]

I have to completely disagree with you. Though there are people who take a medication for a medication doesn't mean that's the norm. Find a good doctor. Find a psychiatrist that is excellent in their field. Getting on the right medication for depression and anxiety is not something that happens over night. It is a trial and error process with open communication between doctor and patient until the best results are found.

Anyone on a drug to compensate another drug needs to get a second opinion.

Anxiety can be controlled. There is nothing wrong with taking a medication for it. There is nothing wrong with taking it for years or until the day you die.

No one should have to continue to live such a life with so many different medications out there that can help each individual person suffering.

I hope anyone who reads your opinion isn't turned off from seeking out a professional and qualified doctor.[/quote]
