Oh absolutely. That&#x27;s why I&#x27;ve tried to make that decision ahead of time and plan the details so that it&#x27;s almost an automatic trigger, hopefully before all insight is lost.<p>It&#x27;s hard because I&#x27;m a very independent, stubborn person who never takes anyone else&#x27;s word for anything. I can&#x27;t think of much worse than being locked up, forced drugs and being told what to think, like 1984. But losing touch with reality and effectively abandoning my family and friends would be worse.<p>EDIT: I&#x27;m not saying that drugs are a panacea, BUT.. I believe mental illness often has a chemical&#x2F;biological origin, which over time accumulates into physical, psychological and social damage. I think appropriate low-dose treatment at an early stage has the potential to limit this damage while avoiding the worst side-effects of higher doses.
