What are your thoughts on psych drugs, such as antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilisers, etc?
Doctors love to prescribe these drugs. But they have very bad side effects, based on what I’ve read. And they can give you strong withdrawals when you try to come off them. Also, should we really be medicalising emotions and taking drugs to emotionally cope with the world? Maybe we need things like friends, family, social connections, to make the world more enjoyable.
What do you think?
If hard to be mentally healthy in todays world full of despair and news constantly bashing you with negatives, some people need medicine to regulate those chemicals.
Not everyone needs medicine but becareful about search bias as you will find someone with terrible advice that has the answer you were already looking for.
