In once sence I feel this is a good step.
I will admit there have been times that I medicated for reasons that (in hindsight) had nothing to do with bad brain chemsitry (other than being a little bit slow in school)
I wish that I had other options. I guess I was really looking for the support that came (or in my case didn't come) with the depression diagnosis.
We don't really care about mental health in this society. I mean we care as long as you can take your pills and get back to work.
We need more than that. I can only hope that fewer pills would change things.
But if one kid can avoid being f*d over by meds, like I have, then the whole thing is worth it.
