Where did I say that society is perfect, and that the only thing making people depressed is chemical imbalance?
I agree that our current society can be stressful, and that environmental factors[0] also affect people's behavior.
I agree that we can improve society through collective action, and hopefully that would lead to better quality of life for people, thus reducing the rate of youth suicide attempts.
However, I was addressing to OP's suggestion that medication will not "help at all with anything." Also that "Psychiatric medication often simply numbs your brain ... and it turns you into a robot."
So what are you defending here, exactly? Do you agree with OP? Is that why you are trying to attribute something to me I didn't say to make my argument seem absurd, instead of addressing my actual arguments?
