I am sure that your friends mean well...however, no one can tell another what is best for them. We all have such individual needs and reactions. What does it mean when you say you are not afraid of the side effects just the risks? What do you see as the risks? What is you relationship with risk... perceived or actual?

Side effects vs Risks -my explanation.
I can push through temporary inconveniences, like tiredness, nausea, temporary joint pain etc. I am not afraid that I might be feeling poorly for a couple of weeks.
It’s the possible long term risks, e.g. loss of density if stopping the medication, more susceptible to fractures in some cases.
Does that make sense, I hope I’ve explained it properly.
