> Granted this forum is very imformative with a great deal of information and feedback. Some substantiated, some not. You cannot take for absolute fact certain things that certain individuals have to say. They are speaking on their own personal experiences and biases. If they feel strongly about a certain issue, they will find every "fact" or bit of information they can to uphold their claims. And a great majority of individuals who read these posts are suffering from depression and/or anxiety, and therefore are prone to suggestibility. Do not let what one person might have to say by any way influence you in determining what is best for YOU and YOU alone.
I agree and this particularly applies to the many many websites on the internet which tell you that meds are BAD BAD BAD and ECT is BAD BAD BAD and you should not take any psychiatry drugs, never have ECT, etc. These websites are known as anti-psychiatry websites and most mental health related websites have strong anti-psychiatry tones to them.
Its always best to think independently, do your own thing, etc.
