the method is the same as imprisonment, because it is a form of forced distraction that limits the ability to commit crime.
it is a mistake to think that the person on the medication would live their life the same way they would if they weren't on it only because they are on it they are less likely to say decide to pull a trigger.

Not true....unless of course you believe chemical imbalance in a myth. Many live very healthy/non-stoned lives while on medications. This is not to say that there aren't those that abuse their meds, or are in an experimental phase to where the right meds haven't been discovered yet.
Mental/emotional disorders can drive people to do things the healthy-minded would not.
