I think many people are convinced by Psychiatrists that what they are experiencing is “sick” instead of saying “man up”...it’s only temporary...until the next nasty event. It’s all about the meds...and getting people on them and for a life time.
Friend of mine just lost her mom and she's grieving. Her brother's a doctor, immediately put her on anti-depressants. Since she's still grieving, she's being told to increase the dosage. What can I say. He's a doctor, and her brother.
