Yeah, indeed. I am not one of the people in the OP since I do want a cure for myself. But yeah, it is high time we have a bit more control about our mental functions.


What I think is most important is that we should have a choice in the matter, not some curebie putting us through medical hell like my mom did, but that we should be able to choose if we want to be cured. I think any criteria that does not include one's free choice is flawed
