How is this a supporting fact? This just proves that supposedly well-intentioned medical interventions can wreck havock in other areas.
Doctors seems to want to medicalize normality at every turn. They've done so with disastrous consequences. We have more people with mental health issues than ever in this country, with the burden getting bigger every day.
This is aside from the fact that the supposed guilds that should be working to help us act more like cartels trying to drug us, lie to us, and corrupt our institutions at every turn.
If that sounds harsh - the offense is all on their side.
