I imagine the stigma of medication for mental health will be around for a long time. I purposely left off any sort of conclusion to this comic. I don't actually know if there is some sort of anti-capitalist movement against medication but for some reason it feels like a very real thing, mixed in with the implication that you are not strong enough to make it on your own. And most importantly, it is up to individuals to decide if medicine is right for you. I just know that it's something that I do and believe it is for the best.
