In this particular case its because there is a general aversion to any type of medicine on general principal(the I did speed when I was young, and I quit, and I dont want chemicals in my body, even though I smoke like a chimney principal, as well as the "god can heal me" principal and the "only weak people need meds to control themselves" principal all in one big mishmash). Some of the meds have had unfortunate side effects. Everyone colaborated to make sure she got off those meds ASAP.

But even if that was her main reasoning, What side effects are worse than paranoid mania and delusional psychotic breaks? What could be worse than causing lifelong damage to your young children?
