A pill is not the solution.

There are already too many pills purporting to help people’s mental states.

A pill is not the solution.

A few years ago I had the opportunity to meet a brain researcher from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm,a *very* highly respected research center.

Long story short...while he was "holding court" for several fascinated audience members over several evenings (it was a South African "safari" where we met him) he said at one point "we know more about the surface of the moon than we know about the human brain.

Also,consider this: years ago...perhaps as recently as 40 or 50 years ago...experienced,reputable physicians used to tell the parents of schizophrenics that their son was the way he was because the mother was too cold and the father was too strict...or something like that.IOW,they'd blame the parents.

But now scientists know that it's caused by chemical imbalances in the brain...just as some disorders of other organs are...heart,lungs,kidneys,liver,etc.
