Torah- one of the people who went off his medicines.

Regarding your cut off – it sounds like you’re talking about people feeling depressed who can either pop pills or work on their problems. Some people have severe chemical imbalances and there aren’t really problems to work on per se, they just need to take their meds. And some of these people who followed this “advice” have more serious struggles like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. You can’t really work on it instead of taking medicine. And if your doctor believes you can, it wouldn’t be without some other intensive intervention.
