I honestly feel nauseous when scientists, especially Psychiatrits start up the the neurotransmitter theories. I'm still recovering from the 90's where all you wonder boys made these great definitive claims about serotonin, dopamine, and all the rest? Yes, it keeps the money coming in, but personally; I am sick of articles like this? Articles, that speculate on a bit of everything, and just might not have one true statement in the entire article? I guess it benefits Nautilus.something? A website I'm seeing too much here? Why do I feel 90%, of just HN readers, have been duped/doped by these scientists/Psychiatrists hoping to find a cure to their misery? Yea, maybe I'm throwing the baby out with the bath water--just warn me a little before I dive into your speculations? Maybe like the the first sentence should be, "Reader, most of what you are about to read is basically speculation. Read it at your own peril? And please don't quote this material as fact." As someone who has looked for happiness through at least 10 drugs, and hours of various Therapy; I sometimes wonder if I wasen't constantly told by media/scientists--including Psychiatrists, just how miserable my life is--maybe my life would have been lived differently, and I wouldn't have been aware of my own melancholy? As a middle aged male, if I could do it over again; I would never read/take one of these articles/studies/therapy sessions/drugs on happiness/anxiety again. I just think they made things worse? The more I push myself away from mental health professionals; the better I feel? Yes, the better I feel. It's a liberating experience. Now, if I could just ween myself off my addictive prescription drugs without dying, or becomming homeless? With my cocktail--belive me, the risks are real. Oh yea, a lot of Professionals will say differently, but they don't know my health status, and it seems like professional deniability is at an all time high? (My point is I don't want to put my body through a detox, but if I was to do it over, I don't think I ever would have refilled a prescription?) I don't blame my Doctors for any of my ailments. My doctors are well vetted. I picked the right guys! Taking the drugs for as long as I have was my fault completely. I just felt I needed them. I definetly think I need them after all these years! Did you ever think they have a conscious/subconcious addenda in the world of Psychology? Tell them they are unhappy, or insinuate they are unhappy, and poof--they are buying my Product--whatever that product may be? (Sorry about my grammer--it's late, and I woke up at 3 a.m. I was told it was a symptom of clinical depression by someone, somewhere? Maybe I just don't sleep like I used to? Who knows?) Oh yea, the bit about Facebook, "Facebook, he argues, is fundamentally changing the nature of relationships in ways that have been lost since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, when people began leaving their native villages behind to head to cities for new opportunities, and lost contact with the people they grew up with. “Thanks to social media, those types of relationships are persistent,” he says. “Now we may be connecting with people over the course of life that we didn’t before.” Personally, I use a pseudonym on Facebook. I try to avoid it because it makes me depressed. I look at all the people I used to know, and it's just kinda depressing? It seems like everyone is being so fake? When I do go to the site, I go to my only group--an Amish group. I eagerly read the posts. I sometimes wonder if I would have been better off in an Amish society?
