Scott,
I do agree that I am fortunate in not having terminal cancer. Thanks for that reminder as it is an important perspective to have whether you're for psych meds or you are against them.
I am not sure why you think I am so fortunate regarding depression. A perfect example is an upsetting situation I am dealing with right now in which I am feeling stupid. Most people would not feel that way.
So I have to work like heck to remind myself that this is a learning experience and if the same situation occurs again, I will know how to better deal with it. In the past, this along with similar type episodes was a recipe for relapse.
But if you're not able to do this, it doesn't mean you're not working hard. I certainly wasn't able to it in the past so I would be the last person to condemn anyone who couldn't.
Look, we're both doing the best we can with different viewpoints.
