I would stand to agree, it is somewhat poorly moderated and whatever the moderator says about "pill popper", that is a highly offensive term to most people on here, including me.. I juggle lets see.. 6... I've lost count, medications a day. Polypharmacy. There is no cure in a jar, but there is a sense of content that can be reached through medication and therapy that allows us to do the things in life that we couldn't do without it -- they are not crutches... they are valuable resources with known side effects and different experiences among people.
I will go further, and it seems to me obvious, that this entire thread has been started.. and please dont mark me with a civil statement, a "troll" remark from the beginning. A superinflated argument is presented, with a known outcome of 25 following messages each with their own feelings towards the original messenger. This has been known since the dawn of internet messaging, Usenet. Someone posts "the sky is falling, and the messiah is coming" (this is an example, no offense to religions meant), and then 25 arguments follow.Let us all be civil, but recognize what this entire thread is what it is, a troll argument. For those who want to believe in alternative treatments or no treatments, that's fine. That isn't this section of the board.
To good thoughts and amity
Tidings and cheers
