Agree.

I too take certain drugs, prescribed by my excellent psych, and monitored as I go along thanks to her knowledge, my honesty with her, and my following directions. I strongly support the use of meds this way, if needed, and consider them one of the many tools in my sober life.

Emotional sobriety is paramount to me and things that help me maintain it are there for me to take advantage of so I keep going on a strong and peaceful path.
