It upsets me when people misinterpret my posts.

Sometimes I wish I could delete posts when people keep replying when they haven't understood what I was saying. So often people reply without understanding the context because they haven't read the whole thread. Someone on the Newbies board recently said that they were afraid of posting because of the way that people respond, I can understand that.

My post was intended to draw attention to the dangers of feeling that medication is the only solution. For some people it clearly is but for many people it is not. Feeling that pills are the only route to recovery can create a sense of helpnessness, I have felt this way myself many times. I would never dismiss the importance of medication for some people.

When I wrote about cosmetic psychopharmacology I was refering to the post by Chairman_MAO. I was not talking about the treatment of mental illness at that point.

Please... if you are going to reply, please read the whole thread.
