There's an argument that mental health medication is useful while healing, through counseling. Often I find the goal, ending treatment by the use of medication, is never actually achieved. Anyone been diagnosed with bipolar disorder 1 or 2, borderline personality disorder, or CPTSD, and has successfully stopped using medication at the direction of a prescriber or therapist? The only reason I stopped was because I refused. Only then did doctors agree with me that I didnt need them.
