It IS strange, right?
You're similar to me, that's special 😀
I don't take any meds, well, they have been advised so I do have them here but I hardly take them, only when things get very bad. I notice they really work but I don't want to get hooked because the feeling is good. They told me to take one once a day and I noticed 1/4 already made me feel more relaxed so that's what I take when I can't handle the General Angst. There is a lot going on so I resort to taking half every once in a while. It helps and also helps my heart; this really needs a break.

I struggle with your point of view "I notice they really work but I don't want to get hooked because the feeling is good." If you have a headache, and Tylenol takes away the pain, do you avoid it? Or if you were told to take meds to control or blood pressure or diabetes, and they made you feel physically better, would you refuse?
The ability to feel better, happier and healthier emotionally and psychologically falls in the same category - general health. As a matter of fact, there is a connection between good mental health and improved physical health and longevity.
What is the drug you fear? Is it physically addicting or are you simply afraid to use a medication to help you feel better?
