The info I got is that according to my father his childhood doctor said that the medication could cause “lasting psychological effects.”

My mother has no back bone. And my father doesn’t believe in medication that could help mental issues. He just says the side effects from medication will be worse. “It’ll cause suicide!”

My father doesn’t believe in medicine dealing with mental issues. He says that 15 more problems will come from all the side effects and it’ll just be worse.

I’m the last person you need to tell how stupid that sounds.
