/psychiatric medication. It's meant to inform people about the dangers of psychiatry and medication it provides. This thread is not aimed to in any way shame people that decided to take medication and found it helpful. It's not aimed to in any way add to a stigma about people/
/taking medication. it's not meant to be associated with people projecting their resentment on people seeking help for their mental health issues. It's not meant to be hostile to any safe space for people that are taking medication. It's not aimed to offend feelings of people/

/ risks and dangers that come with prescribed medication but i would encourage you to do your own research and make an informed decision about taking it.
