Taking Medication Is Voluntary
Taking a psychiatric medication is a voluntary act. Unless you are brought to a psychiatric hospital by ambulance, or suspected of being a possible danger to yourself or others, or not obeying the directions of hospital personnel, or hallucinating, or not agreeing to take the drugs voluntarily for too long when the doctor deems it necessary, you cannot be given a medication against your will.

Every single action we take is a choice.
