Cheetah,

I have tried everything to help me. I have a good family yet when I was 5 I used to want to kill myself and try to rip my skin off.
I beleive there are imbalances in the brain. (after what I've lived through how could I not) Just like Manic depression and Schizophernia are also imbalances. (my uncle is schizophrenic. (Relation to depression who knows.) If I do not take antidepressants than I
end up in a hospital. Depression is not just feeling sad. If you have it bad enough it can make you go crazy. Rage and irrationality also exist in some depression.
I will take the drugs because they make me feel 20% better. and if they're bad for me than that's the chance I'm willing to take.
I'd rather live a short life that I am somewhat able to enjoy than a long life of torture and isolation. I would definitley end up dead.
whether YOU take drugs to help is up to YOU, but don't put down those people like me who find that is the only thing that allows them to somewhat function. It's no cure and it doens't take it all away, but it's liveable.
And I've tried all the natural approaches. I agree that some people may be to quick to jump on drugs but don't forget that there are some of us who have turned to them as a last desperate resort. And we need them to function at all.
I doubt you would tell a Schizophrenic person to go off there drugs.
