RE: Depression: A different angle on it.
I am also against medicine to cure depression or everything else.
How to know if you are depressed?
Well, sometimes, when people really have depression (the illness), they don't realize it - they are just depressed with no reason. And even if they have reasons they don't want to do anything about it, they don't take advises, they can't find happiness in the world around them. This is how I know someone really needs help.
But, as I've written in my post, medicine is not the answer for depression and I agree with you.
exactly,
And it often (always?) even more complicated then other people realise.
Nobody really has time to look a tiny bit deeper. And pharma takes advanage of that by offering 'a simple solution to chemical happiness'
People need people to get to a better place. Else they just stay trapped in the pharma dungeon.
Same without meds...
And lets not forget those who do 'self medication' with alcohol, or other drugs.
Its difficult enough to deal with people, and drugged people are much more difficult to deal with, simply because you then need to figure out what part of the behaviour is affected by the drug. Even when it is a positive one.
