Hey!
Thats great news! I'm really happy things are going okay.
Pysch drugs and their 'reputation' have alot to answer for. Plus people seem to forget that you can't stay indefinately on something, although people do, and really these drugs weren't really meant for longer term use.
I mean, prozac has only been around since the 1980s at best, and I mean, no-one knows what happens if you have to take it for like 40 years or whatever.
I haven't taken a pysch drug in over a year, and I'm doing much better than I ever was on any drug. Although you do have some good days some bad, but you learn alterative strategies for coping with the bad days. And this is something that is definately suistainable in the long term.
Plus, what about psychological causes of depression/anxiety????
I always feel that the biological cause is totally over represented. I think alot of depression/anxiety is psychological in nature.
