Personal medicine is an activity that a person does to obtain wellness, rather than something a person takes for wellness.
In the psychiatric setting, personal medicine, or other self-initiated, non-pharmaceutical self-care activities, is used to decrease symptoms, avoid undesirable outcomes such as hospitalization, and improve mood, thoughts, behaviors, and the overall sense of well-being. The phrase "personal medicine" has also been used by the popular press to refer to personalized medicine.
