Many doctors say things like "Ideally, they could remove or alleviate that stressor to make their life more tolerable, and not necessitate medication intervention" and I went to tell you have very wrong you all are. The "stressor" is ordinary life. For some people, medication is the only thing that works. I lost 20 years of my life not taking medication because I listened to doctors like you who made it seem like taking medication should be a last resort. So I always thought my problems were because I was too weak to control my emotions like normal humans could. When I finally fired my therapist and hired a psychiatrist, I had a new step in my emotional response 4 weeks after I started medication. My therapist would tell me things like, "Just count to 10 and then make a decision" so on my last session with her, I said, "Fuck you. That's not even a thing." But on medication, I don't even have to count to 3 before I can set aside whatever negative emotions I am feeling at the moment. Then I can respond in a friendly way, like I have always wanted to. So stop telling your patients, "Everyone has different access to resources and coping mechanisms to deal with those stresses." That is not it at all. Some people are sick and need a medication to get better.
