There have been several posts on Hacker News about this the past few days.
I know myself. I'm a hacker, right? I can reprogram my body to accomplish anything.
But sometimes people do need help, and that's not bad.
I love this site, and the people on it. I hope these recent posts don't create a culture that rejects all depression management methods.
It's a very fine line. The previous post mentioned that the "placebo effect is growing stronger".
That may be true, but recent stressful events in the world have taken a toll on people. Seeking help should be a zero cost option, or maybe even slightly less.
Not everyone needs help, but those who do may find an explosion of links to this by friends off putting.
Just something I'm keeping in mind for myself when talking to my circle.
