>>Is everything a “medical condition”? <<

No, certainly not. But there are some real medical conditions that require real medical solutions.

I agree it is too bad that Rx is the quick go-to for almost everything and the left has grabbed onto EVERYTHING as a disorder (thus freeing everyone from personal responsibility, their end-game).

But there are a lot of conditions which are purely medical.

It always bothers me that people just say “just pull yourself up by your bootstraps!” when they have not the training to say one way or the other.

I didn’t say anything about bootstraps. I am discussing taking personal responsibility for one’s health, whether physical or mental/emotional; and part of that personal responsiblity can include not only making changes in ones’ life, but seeking appropriate help.

I was treated long ago with psychoactive drugs and I know from personal experience they did much harm and no good whatsoever. ymmv.

The brain is not the seat of consciousness, the brain is a tool and there are many workarounds, and ways to train the brain.
