So mental health medicine may be a mixed bag ... depending on who is taking it and for what.
My only advice about medications ... don't take advice from random people on this, or any other, discussion forum. When someone comes on here and tells you to avoid medication ... then I suggest you avoid doing what that poster says. LISTEN TO YOUR DOCTORS and LISTEN TO THOSE AROUND YOU IN REAL LIFE.
So according to you he must blindly listen to those who gave him harmful medications in the first place? Unless he wants to have a second and third opinion from other medical experts I see the whole thing as a recipe for disaster. It's like going to the doctor to get vaccinated with a COVID vaccine and get a series of side effects but the doctor insists you should now get your second dose. Medicine is not an exact science and often things don't go well with the various prescriptions.
