My sister committed suicide so don’t tell me you KNOW how many lives were SAVED by anti-depressant medication. YOU don’t know. Scientists DON’T know. YOU GUESS. Scientists KNOW those drugs are TOXIC to the body and damages it. You can’t put toxins in the body with NO negative results. How many people have killed other people and themselves while ON medication. You leave that little tidbit out-—conveniently......kind of like the “evil of guns” argument——not counting the millions of lives saved by just having that “evil” gun.
True—there are some brains in need of medication-—but you can MEASURE that. MOST times, “depression” is the result of subjective analysis-—ALL physical examinations will not show up ANYTHING physical.
All the medical mumble jumble-—most problems—are either because of toxins in the body (probably from vaccinations)==which can be measured-—or inadequate diet and no exercise—or because of childhood trauma-—not dealing with fundamental issues of life—most likely character flaws.
BTW, science is all about assumptions-—most of which try to cover up all relevant symptoms so the doctors *SEEM* to *know* what they are talking about.
Now, I am not talking about all pills and doctors that deal with broken bones and such-—things which CAN be KNOWN. That is completely different.
I am talking about the fraudulent *science* of psychology. Most psychologists are quacks. Some are excellent-—but they *know* that they don’t know everything and they understand psychoanalysis and the power of the brain WITHOUT drugging it.
Only God removes fear and can replace it with *hope*. True—many times desperate people need help-—but pills only cover-up and delay the problem and damage the body in the meantime and create more problems and fears.
Have you *ever* counted all the pills that seniors take? I have-—it is staggering......been conditioned by the marketing.
My grandparents didn’t need any *medication* and they lived to be in their eighties and were active until their quick death. Of course, they were not filled with all the toxins from vaccinations and taking pills for aches and pains which collect in the body and they were active (farming) for most of their lives-—no GMO foods, corn syrup in everything, soda pop was rare, and they had non floridated water (well water).
Only God removes fear and can replace it with *hope*.
Psychological problems run rampant in socialist societies. Or at least problems that people label "psychological".
Is it a coincidence that these are Godless societies? I think not.
When you attempt to remove God from society, hope dissipates ...societal and familial bonds are damaged and broken. Depression results. And psychologists make fortunes by attributing these problems to different causes.
I am amazed how many people can't figure this out.
The cdc says about 11% of the population takes antidepressants. And yet, the murder rate in the US has been steadily declining for the last 20+ years. It is as low now as it was in the early 1960s. Suicide rates have also fallen in the US, and were lower in 2005 than in 1950, 1960 and 1970.
I don't think you have much of a case.
