3-8. Can I take medications if I'm straight-edge?
Some kids say you shouldn't take any drugs. "Straight Edger's exclude
all forms of drugs from their lives, including alcohol, cigarettes,
illegal drugs and often other drugs such as aspirin. Most sXe'ers don't
even "use" caffeine." [2]
However, it would be stupid not to take medications for serious
illnesses. How can you take control of your life if you're delirious
or dead!

"You are who you are. Straight Edge has always been about the choices
you make, right? Well you don't have a choice to choose to have [a
condition] or not. Therefore take your medicine and have SxE pride
because you are doing what's best for your body. And I think a lot of
"SxE" is about taking care of yourself...as long as you're not abusing
your prescription, than it's all good."
