Your ideas are very unhelpful, and should be considered as downright <i>harmful</i> as people who deny that depression exists because &quot;I was sad one time, but then I pulled myself up by the bootstraps.&quot;<p>The idea that using medication to handle these things is the &quot;shut up and take your pills&quot; approach and that the &quot;real&quot; way to deal with this is to just leave people in a state of psychosis until they &quot;magically&quot; snap out of it is ridiculous. How long would you prescribe that Kenneth should have been left in this state? What if he stayed in it indefinitely? We just let him ride out the rest of his life like that?
