Is it irrational to not want medication as a solution to depression?
If it’s irrational, than call me irrational. I prefer to deal with periods of depression or other extreme emotional states as naturally as possible. I have very strong personal beliefs that human beings should experience these feelings from time to time as a part of life. If there was a medical “solution” to every emotional crisis or extreme that we faced in our lives, we’d end up being empty, emotionless robots with no character or any of the rich and extreme experiences that make up a life.
