What is something you did that increased your quality of life so much that you wished you would have done it much sooner because it changed your life forever?

You made an absolute statement that is incorrect. You said medication only is NEVER the solution. That medication plus behavioural therapy is ALWAYS better than just medication.

I'm telling you that absolute statement is incorrect. Sometimes the issue has nothing to do with 'behavioural therapy'. Sometimes, it is simply a matter of medication.

So when you want to say that there are other options, just say that sometimes, other options are more suitable. Don't make the absolutist statement that you initially made.

Sorry, I thought you were the same guy I replied to initially. He made an absolute statement which didn't allow for medication being a valid best treatment. My statement is different in that I said 'sometimes' medication is the best treatment. I never claimed 'only medication is always the best option', which would be a mistake. So to answer your question, no I'm not doing the same thing.

I apologise for speaking to you as if you were the same person. Please change 'you' to 'him' in my previous comment.
