If taking psych meds helps you that's great, but I wish all the "always take your meds!!!" and "it's okay to take meds!!!" positivity would leave some space for the way people with certain mental illnesses are often expected, coerced and forced into taking psychiatric medication that isn't necessarily helping them and the trauma associated with this, because illnesses like schizophrenia (and other diagnoses which include psychosis) are seen as something that NEEDS medical intervention in a way anxiety and depression just isn't. I'm not saying people don't get to talk about how their meds help them, but "take your meds you need them!!!" just really isn't an empowering counterculture positive message for everyone
