Its very different in different countries, even different states. Are you in the US, UK, Australia, or Canada? Very, very different circumstances than France, Germany, Austria, etc. It is true that there are generalizations; but the statistics of abuse of pharmaceuticals cannot be denied, nor is it safe - at all - to ignore the commercialization of mental illness by multi-national pharmaceutical corporations. In Germany, pharmaceutical corporations use sales agents to directly promote and sell their wares to doctors: and this is perfectly legal. In the US, they use conferences and junkets. You cannot ignore these things, given that pharmaceuticals are demonstrably over-prescribed in the West. It is very naive to ignore the drugging of society by corporate interests.
