TLC Wife Takes A Stand On Mental Health And Medication
Mental health awareness is a lot more prevalent now than it was five to ten years ago. There is an openness around the conversation that wasn’t there before. However, there are still many out and about who view any kind of therapy or prescribed mental health medication as a huge red flag.
Recently, Jacob Roloff’s wife, Isabel Roloff, made her stance on mental health and medication public. Isabel responded to a Little People Big World fan who encouraged “natural remedies” over prescribed medication, and the Roloff wife was not having it.
Isabel Roloff said: “This line of thinking is what perpetuates the stigmatization of medication and makes people feel bad for taking it. You don’t have to take medication if you feel this way – but “natural remedies” cannot alter my brain chemistry and make my neurodivergence magically disappear.”
Isabel Roloff went on, saying: “I’ve tried it all and realized that I don’t get any brownie points at the end for raw dogging life and suffering.”
Little People Big World Fans Unite In Rare Show Of Support
Typically, Isabel Roloff is one of those Roloff family members that most people like to target and criticize. However, following this recent update of her expressing her position on mental health and medication, she is getting a surprising show of support from many viewers.
- One Little People Big World fan said: “Honestly, first thing I have seen her post that I agree with! Good for her. Also, no shade to auj but if the shoe fits.”
- Another commenter said: “Way to go, Isabel! There is nothing to be ashamed of. We take our medication to get our neurotransmitters balanced. I agree that Mrs and Mr. Audrey are ones that look down on her. Audrey bragged about not taking advil or antibiotics in years. She chooses to suffer. I’d much prefer needing medication than having to pretend all is perfect in life.”
