The strawman sentiment of "no medication ever" is a pretty easy take to herald against.

The nuanced truth is that our medical industry is flawed; since most illnesses are defined by their set of apparent symptoms (with most root causes not fully understood) the standard approach is to treat "symptoms" with medicines with sides effects rivaling the original ailment!

What if the lack of proper diet ('proper' varies wildly with populations), drugs/alcohol, sleep, stress, and exercise were the originating cause? Rushing to the medication treatment without fixing those vitals first eliminates the opportunity.

Our bodies have much more adaptive self-healing resilience properties innate to our species development than our own species hubris seems to acknowledge. And most people severely underestimate the importance big four.

I think calling my comment a strawman is a little unfair given the way he wrote it seemed pretty unequivocal at first. Once they clarified their stance I understood it better and was perfectly fine accepting that’s not what they meant.
