The pharmaceutical industry is NOT a "complete scam" although some sections of it are definitely corrupt and irresponsible.. Do you never ever take anything manufactured in that industry?
I wouldn't be alive without modern medicine and the pharmaceutical industry but I too would be very wary of medication for anxiety/depression type conditions until just about everything else has been tried.
Chemical changes in the brains of people with psych conditions has been well documented for many years: the issue is whether the imbalance caused the condition or the other way around. Either way, for some people medication does work, while for others it doesn't work or the side effects aren't worth it.
Great that you added the links after annoying me with your opening sweeping statements! Would you concede that some people with entrenched emotional problems might need to take medication to lift the depression a bit so they can get into some real healing? Sort of like painkillers for your toothache until you can get to the dentist?
Is it normal that I have no one to turn to?
