This post will probably be removed (and the removal message promptly posted on r/freespeech), but this needs to be said.

Why should I bother? They only cure the symptoms and not the actual problem. They haven't helped any of my friends who chose to take them. I am sick of softer language being used to subtly manipulate people into taking pharmaceutical bullshit. I feel like psychiatrists only want my money and not me to have a good life. My therapist cares more about *seeing* results than *getting* results. Oh, but if I disagree with what the psychiatrist says? Must be just more evidence why I need medication! There is no winning in the industry.

I am not trying to encourage anyone to stop taking medication, I just want to vent.
