It did matter to find the right drug, and nothing else helped. So there, one anecdote vs. another. I do agree with the general sentiment, though that has to do with the rulers of this world (not politicians).

Yeah, I don't disagree at all. In fact I was on CBD for a while and it really did help me to almost eliminate my anxiety.

And yep, my beef with psychiatric chemical help is exactly that: I want to see more will to repair the system and not treat more and more patients.
