I'm not defending anything. What i am doing is highlighting your spiritual narcissism that is masquerading as a "reality check"
What you did was internalize the idea that you were just being coddled and that you were inferior due to your mental illness and so as a result you bypassed (spiritual bypassing) your ACTUAL healing work by assuming an identity of superiority (spiritual narcissism) in order to cope with the internal belief that you are inferior.
I am still waiting for you to tell me what my life experience is. You claim to know so clearly.

I agree. That is the goal i am working on ATM.
I did tell my doctor I didn't want the drugs but he did make some good points about why he thinks i should and i ultimately did agree with him.
It was already my goal to get off of them after some time, though that will be on hold as I do feel its helping me as I work with my therapist.
Doctors get kickbacks for writing prescriptions, some of them may even think that they are helping people. I worked in a hospital and saw patients coming in with several gallon sized ziplock bags full of prescriptions. Please don't let him prescribe anything else. Your body will thank you in the years to come.

I already told you everything :)

Also read my replies again. Then read yours. Then think who really replied there. Was it you, or your uncertainty/ ego whatever. Was it necessary to understand it like this? Or was it something else?

But this is a different topic.

I only accepted one medication for the depression and it was one i had taken before and proved to be effective. the others i need to have so i don't die in my sleep, so they're not exactly optional.

You're dodging my very clear and direct statements. I have clearly stated that you are wrong in your assumptions and I'm asking you to clarify PRECISELY what it is you are referring to. Your experience was not mine, yet you continue assuming it is, despite me clearly telling you it wasn't. You even were operating under the assumption that I wasn't already planning on getting off the meds. That was already part of my plan and you clearly assumed I wasn't, which highlights very clearly that you do not have some kind of superior insight like you claim to.

So, I will ask you again to tell me what my life experience was/is.

If I am wrong anyway with my "assumptions" about you and only project whatever unto you. If all of this what I say isn't the case and wrong then you don't need anything from me anyway.

If everything I told you doesn't even apply to you, then why keep on asking? Why keep going on with this? I am not arguing or debating or whatever. You can go to reddit and argue with the bots there until you turn black. I have better things to do. If this is what you belief so be it.

Just ignore what I said and stay in the right. You don't need to acknowledge anything. See how far it gets you in life.

Just remember that you asked for this, Quite the audacity to even argue away what people say to you then.

The reason I keep asking is because you are operating under the pretense that the way you experience things have some kind of universal objective truth to it, and when told you were incorrect about your assumptions, you just dodged and then said "is it even necessary to understand?" I said i wasn't coddled. You insisted I was. That must be because you feel that YOU were coddled. When I challenged you on that, you doubled down and when I stood my ground you abandoned ship and are now trying to paint me as ignorant or unwilling to hear people out or consider other perspectives. This is a clear demonstration of the lack of self-awareness that you are claiming I lack.

Another assumption of yours.
You are assuming i don't acknowledge anything while also doing whatever you can to avoid acknowledging that you've been making and giving assumptions left and right like you're Oprah.
When I ask for input, I want genuine constructive input, not whatever narrative/mask you need to put on to make yourself feel better about your choices.
