So many great points in your article..The one thing that doesn’t work for me is your depiction of those of us who need medication, something that was less fine tuned in the fifties and sixties. While most of your article is helpful, I find this part only adds to the stigma that is really not helpful. I, myself had some misunderstanding of psychotropic meds before needing them for a major depressive episode..they are not for numbing but for survival and every bit as needed as any other form of medicine..Thanks and hoping you’ll consider that in future articles.
