“I just don’t think that one should be critical of those who feel that it is not the right decision for them to go out with someone on medication for anxiety, etc. “
Totally okay for someone to not be with someone based on this person taking medication for anxiety. We all have different needs and circumstances that influence our choices.
I have even heard doctors warn someone against dating someone else with a similar condition. It’s not a judgment against the person. Rather, seeing whether together they bring out each others’ strengths, especially in the long run. So even the person with anxiety may not even want to date someone else with anxiety. Who knows. Anything is possible.
There are posters speaking up against this because of stigma. It is unfortunate if someone is overlooked for something that another person may see as a strength, and another as not a big deal at all. Thankfully we are all different and have different needs.
Ultimately you have to do what is right and healthiest for you.
