In reply to Medications the whole answer and what about life??, posted by Karen44 on July 31, 2006, at 0:08:40
3rd world countries and the people within them have a contentment and happiness that completely outweights that of the rich develeped countries of the world. Why? I don't know but I've witnessed it with my own eyes. Until we reach that balance perhaps the drugs help our thinking to stop us feeling repressed and down about our future ahead in the world of drug advertisments selling an idea whereby the only people really living that gratifying life are those in the 3rd world countries. I think the advertisment should be on how to live like they do in other parts of the world where they are far more happier overall and psychiatric drugs are simply not needed as much.
Psychiatric drugs are becoming our daily diet and filling a hole in our lifes, when truely the answer to filling that hole is what we choose it to be, whether that be psycho babble, medications, sex, socializing with friends or a whole number of things.
The more I enage in what life can give me which totally gives me balance, structure, goals and rewards etc, I find I need less drugs to artificially aid me in life. When these things fall apart and my psyche drops, I pick up the drugs, knowing it will do "something" but never enough to what life has to offer without them.
