I used to think like this. I was very anti medication, pro meditation and mindfulness, and then it happened to me. After a significant life event, a lot of things bubbled to the surface. I wasn't as in touch with myself as I used to be but, again, I was anti medication and thought I could fix things myself. It took me a scary amount of time to ask my doctor for meds, and of course they were happy to prescribe but they never pushed them on me in any way. I was worried I'd feel different, not like myself. Now, 2+ years on SSRIs and I can honestly say I've never felt more like myself. With the meds, I feel like I've unlocked my full potential. Before, I had bouts of heightened success, but they were always weighed down by this underlying instability. I don't consider myself a "drugged" person, but rather the version of myself that I want to be.
