A lot of people with disorders in this family wind up on medication
long-term.  Long-term, there are some side effects that ultimately shorten
the person's life span.  I have known two people who have been on them
since they were around 20.  One of them slumped over and died at ~46 years
old, while the other is starting to have issues that will eventually likely
be fatal.  He is ~50 now.

My (potentially flawed) understanding is that these medications do damage
to the parts of the brain that control the body's life support systems.
