Unfortunately I agree with you. Members of mainstream western society want to take a pill to solve all their problems. And there’s an entire Pharmalogical Industrial Complex supported by countless clinicians and academics, all of whom are highly incentivized to quash any attempts to approach the problem from the only angle that has a chance of working. And why would they? They’re all getting rich and tenured.

- boomboomsubban 8y agoI have seen several psychiatrists, and all of them have prescribed therapy in addition to any medication. The medication is supposed to be a temporary aid while you get fixed, and generally it is the patients who only take the medication.
- mindgam3 8y agoRight. That’s what everyone says, meds are temporary. In your case, were they temporary or are you still taking them?
- boomboomsubban 8y agoI took them until I finally found and went to therapist that could help. That part was significantly more difficult, many people stumble there and stick to the medication for years.
