This is in no way directed at anyone here, but i believe there is a very large number of people who are on medication for mental illness that have no business being on them. It's like the proffesionals are looking for a quick fix to make a person feel better. I know there are many people who have brain chemistry issues, and therefore need the meds, I'm all for that. For me personally, when I was in highschool my mother thought I was depressed. My parents were divorced when I was 5. She took me to a therapist who before even talking to me prescribed me prozac. I took it for about 2 months. I had weekly sessions with her insisting that I was not depressed, and I complained that I just did not feel right on prozac. I felt like a shell of myself. he said don't worry about it keep taking it. After the 2 months I refused to take another pill. In my view I was not depressed. I think my mother just felt guilty for some reason. I've never been one to let things bother me too much. If I have problems in my life(and there have been plenty) I deal with them the best way I can. Put one foot in front of the other so to speak. Thats just the way I am. I know it doesn't work for everyone though
