If you’re suffering from intrusive thoughts, suicidal ideation, or depression you cannot control… please seek help.
Lexipro has helped me TREMENDOUSLY with no adverse side effects.
As a yoga instructor/wellness facilitator, I avoided medication for over 20 years bc of the stigma, shame, judgment & pressure the ‘wellness’ community puts on people to "rise above" our problems.
While I believe wholeheartedly in manifesting the life we want…
I also believe it’s dangerous & irresponsible for us to look down on & openly judge others for taking life-saving medication… and to deny ourselves that medication when we need it.
I see people I love in the yoga/wellness community suffering.
I also see them taking all kinds of drugs recreationally (man-made and otherwise) but still looking down on those of us who use western medicine. Yes, sacred plants can be an alternative treatment, but please take care of your brain health & stress levels consistently, friends.
As we enter this month of awareness, practice kindness with yourself & others.
Lead with love.
End the stigma & shaming… let’s help keep each other uplifted & alive. It really fucking matters a whole lot.
