No, I think it's lots of things. But I've been on and off meds for years - been stable when on them and not when off them. I think that's a pretty high coincidence if it's not related.
I'm not saying meds are perfect, not saying that they don't have often damaging side-effects, but I KNOW that without them I'd either be dead or locked up on a hospital ward by now. I'm not going to be on them forever, but for now I need them and they're working for me. I'm not going to delude myself that they're either the spawn of the devil or the answer to all my problems - the likelihood is that it's somewhere in the middle.
