Ok let's back up and simplify. If there's a 25% chance you're going to kill yourself in 90 days, medication helps. If you have a milder case and/or a very long time horizon, completely agree doing "root cause" work throughout your preferred method makes sense. But it's not fair to the people suffering to say "I know you're bed bound but how about some cardio? Nah you don't need medicine that just numbs it". Why can't they get a little help when they're in a desperate place? Starting medicine doesn't imply a death sentence where it's force fed down your throat every day for the rest of your life. Take it for 6 months and stop when everything is going better and you have some reps of [your preferred recovery technique] under your belt.
