Medication when applied strategically as a solution to help antibodies is worth it.

Depressive medication or other legal drugs are definitely not. They damage your life more than you imagine.

Well if it’s already broken? @midnightsun

@MayaHope then it's fine. Medication helps you live normal life.

I'm talking about disorders from childhood/birth and stuff like that

I just think people think drugs are the only option sometimes... I know many say they help, but I just feel like if we medicate away emotional pain, what does that say about our beliefs and values? @midnightsun

Escapism.

For some weird flaw in our thinking, our mind tends to assume that escaping from the problems is equivalent to solving them.

That's why drugs are always the go-to for people. Alcohol also comes under this.
