When my acquaintance said that, it was fortunately in online chat. I didn't bother with responding, just changed the subject. In real life...dude, I don't know how I'd respond.
If I could get off meds, I would. I think there's a lot to be said for therapy, nutrition, writing, etc. as a supplement to or replacement for medication. But you always have to look at your situation honestly. Personally, if all I have to do is pop an Abilify and possibly some kind of anti-anxiety and/or mood-improving agent to stay out of involuntary treatment, I'm cool with that. Other people, though, have less severe situations, so I think its probably good to reassess your need for chemical treatments periodically.
