Of course. Unfortunately some (or many) of us have been dealt a bad genetic card whereby the medications may relieve the symptoms but they are doing nothing to correct the underlying genetic defects.
You can't nurse somebody back from Huntington's (for example).
There is nothing inherently wrong for taking a chemical so long as the benefits outweigh the risks. You body / brain operate on a kazillion chemicals.
Am I dependent on wearing my glasses? Probably, but who cares?
This being said, I (personally) believe in testing the doses and seeing what happens. Don't keep taking 500mg of a medication if 250mg will do just as well.
