Medications just leave you satisfied with being plunged into darkness, having no strength, being broken and not rebuilding yourself. No they actually kill your will power over time, kill your emotions, and plunge you on the side of despair over the side of hope. They are not a solution, they are a compromise.
Medication is a tool to help you get well. The delusions have to stop so that you can work on reality.
