So the long and short of it is..if you are able to recognize what your problem is, and you find the med that makes you feel better, go with it. Why feel like crap if you don't have to?
On the other hand, if you know what your problem is, and you want to deal with it on your own, and can, successfully, do so, there is nothing wrong with that.
And as far as experimenting with drugs on children who are a little antsy (imagine, kids who are antsy) or sex offenders who are fucked up every way from Sunday, that's bullshit. It's much easier for a crazy person, who can't be cured or even soothed by medication, to live a life with symptoms he knows and can cope with on some level year in and year out than it is for that person to continually have to deal with new symptoms and side effects caused by meds arbitrarily and carelessly prescribed by doctors who are just guessing.
Meanwhile, those of us who have issues with things like pain can't get our asshole doctors to give us what we need to cope with a sore throat that lasts for 2 weeks, or 3 inch bone spurs in our backs.
Fucking doctors.
