Watched a doc on overmedication. Now I doubt my own pills.

After that CNN documentary, I started questioning my own pill routine too.

Honestly those docs can be really scary but they're not the full story. They tend to focus on the worst cases to get your attention. Talk to your doctor, not a tv show, because your meds might actually be helping you.

Seriously, focusing on the worst cases just to get views is pretty messed up. It makes everyone think their meds are dangerous when they might not be. I've known people who quit their pills after watching stuff like that and it didn't end well. Doctors actually know your history and what helps you. Those shows should tell the full story, not just the scary parts.

Did that documentary get to you too? It really stuck with me, just like it did for @rose_martin22.
