[QUOTE="Malika, post: 412530, member: 11227"] Please don't do it, HaoZi!! I do feel, personally speaking, that there's a middle way... yes, there's a place for drugs (sorry, medication!), obviously, and yes there's also room for saying and thinking, as I'm sure most people here would agree, that medications have certain consequences and side effects other than just helpful ones and that there is a decision to be weighed up, reflected on. There could be other ways also. Not just "postive thinking" :-) I know if my child had some very serious illness, physical or mental, that could be helped and treated only with medications, I would want her/him to take them. If it less clear-cut, I would like people to give respectful consideration to the possiblility of other routes... [/QUOTE]
