You have chosen to come to a mental health forum where people, in consultation with their doctors, have decided that medication is an appropriate component to treatment of their mental illness, and you preach against medications, making many generalizations. I am curious as to why. What is it you wish to accomplish?
I am one of those who has had success with medication. They are not perfect, but they've given me my life back. In the past, I've stopped a number of psych meds, including benzodiazepines, with no problems whatsoever. I doubt I'm the only one.
Exercise and diet are wonderful, but not always sufficient. I am very grateful for the relief I've gotten with medication. It has been crucial to my recovery.
I'm pretty busy right now, so this is likely the only post I'll have time to contribute to this thread.
Entomology is the study of insects.
