Easy, One. Sorry I got you so stirred up. I don't condemn all of western medicine and the examples you give above are good ones. But this country is too dependent on drugs to "handle" every little thing. Let's handle why people get ill or look for spiritual/psychosomatic causes before we dive for the medicine cabinet. > As far as psychotropic medicines go they do not work for everyone.

I got it. From my experience the long term "results" of these drugs are not good. I've posted my anecdotal experiences over the last 5 years previously. My bottom line is this: there is too much drug use in this country. If a non drug approach works, why not try that first? I ask you - Does anyone NOT know someone who is on an anti depressant? It's an epidemic and as you say the drugs certainly don't work for everyone.(See my prior post with links on these drugs) What do you think the suicide rate is for > psychotic depression without these drugs is? Will research. Don't know. Please check links on my prior post that adresses this. Drug companies can be greedy and act irresponsibly.

My buddies at CCHR have helped send a fair # to jail. Thanks for keeping me honest.
