What really bothered me about that post was how it reduced meds to frivolity--that people only use meds to cram for finals or to help them remember their keys, or that the main benefit to taking them would be that we don't leave half-drunk coffee cups all over the house, and that taking meds forecloses options like joining the military, rather than thinking about how meds make other things possible, like finishing high school.

It reminds me of sasha_feather's comment about disabling metaphors like 'crutch', that we use that word metaphorically to mean 'something we use when we should be able to do without it', rather than what it really is, which is 'a tool we can use for improving our lives'.
