this chapter argues that medication is a good and helpful thing for depression or anxiety. There were some good arguments in there, but the one that convinced me was "if the issue was solely spiritual in nature, then medication wouldn't help."

the one thing i dont agree with for the anxiety section is the control aspect. i don't think focusing on what i can control helps me, it helps to let go of control
