Mental Health Meds: The Courage People Love to Criticize

Taking Meds Isn’t Weak—Shaming Is.

My Zoloft (Sertraline) helps me stay balanced with Bipolar Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and panic/anxiety. Mental health medication isn’t something to be ashamed of, it’s healthcare. It’s self-care. If meds help you live, function, and breathe easier, that’s strength.

Medication is part of how I survive and thrive. I’m not ashamed of that. It’s okay to need medication to support your mental health. You’re still strong. It’s incredibly courageous facing your mental health.

I’m right here with you.


P.S. ✨️ Oh, next time anyone thinks about pill shaming someone, don’t. ✨️
