When or how did you decide to take something vs what was happening before?

I’ve done lots of therapy work. Systemizing and structuring things. Definitely helpful.

But sometimes I just feel wired (this way) and wonder if chemically rewiring is the real answer. Rather than willpower, talking, and trying to adress the “root cause” over a prescription.

Stay away from Schedule 2. Just stay the fuck away. If it was mitigable by non-pharma means, do that. Because once you're on Schedule 2, you're basically tethered to a physician and pharmacy in your State of residence, and your insurer will make your life miserable. Further you will be locked out of many rewarding avenues of life just because the logistics involved.

Nevermind the fact that you will start completely losing any appreciation for non-medicated people's rate of throughput. Lifetime of experience and hard learned lessons speaking here.

Interesting. The person I replied to had the opposite opinion. The only answer for them, it seemed.

Care to share a bit of the detail behind this very pointed response? Thanks so much for it.
