I have been thinking and have an idea about why so many people are using the help that medication gives them. It is just my idea, but it might be worth looking into.
There are two ways to deal with responsibility when it overwhelms you.
You can run, reducing the stress, or you can stay and fight.
On things like marriage, I keep seeing stats about how people in Utah are more likely to stay and fight to keep the family together. [that is fight to keep the marriage together, not fight each other].
If you walk away from a hard time, you reduct the problems and the stress, and do not need the help the medicine gives.
Just an idea, what do you think?

Staying, in the long run, is better.
Running does NOT remove the problems!

Staying is often more stressful, although the better choice. Running away does sometimes offer a temoporary reduction in the level of stress, but it seems to me to be at a great cost not only to the family but to the very core of the person who runs.

I wonder if this is a common phenomena in churches that preach legalism instead of the absolution of sins through the atoning death of God in the person of Jesus Christ on the cross.Nine months later, I finally find your thread...
