No never

Psych pills are "anit- psychotics". What did you take lj?

Ritalin and antidepressants are not psych pills. IBRAM...and you are right. You probably didn't need them
.( just cause you said you didn't)

Say more please.... how do you "know" if you "need" them? If I say I don't is that necessary and sufficient? How do I know I'm not wrong? How do you know I'm not wrong? What if things other people think are dragging you "down" are things you consider core components of your personality? What if you obsessively post to message boards (in between checking your package tracking status) at 12:16AM?

If you think you can cope without them then you probably don't need them. Unless you (not you) are psychotic in which case I'm not sure your opinion counts.

How do I know I'm psychotic?

(Yes, I'm being a smartass as usual. No, I don't think I'm psychotic. But really. How do we know these things?

If you don't think you need help then, usually, you don't. Its when you think you are losing control or that you are not in control that coping is no longer a viable option.

As far as being psychotic goes, I'm not sure a self-assesment is all that material. Usually, one's behaviour will bear it out in which case, the opinions of others (like Wolf's) become significant.

I knew someone would latch on to that.

Ibram seems to know himself well enough to tell us. I was being respectful and not second guessing him. Why not ask him?
