Of course there are chemicals in foods, but why would you continue taking lexapro if it didn't work, that just doesn't make sense.I agree. But she said didn't want to ingest chemicals if not necessary and I agreed with that as well. I was just wondering if she applied the same philosophy to the food she ate. I was more curious than anything else.
For instance, I feel like a hypocrite because I am vegetarian (almost vegan), I only eat organic and I don't eat any processed food. Yet I swallow a bunch of pills (chemicals) in the morning with the hopes that they will help me with my deep and painful depression. Every morning I hate doing it, but if it keeps me out of the hospital then I will swallow those damn pills.
