Imagine being on a super-side-effect drug for 30 years and stoically suffering through life and generally having a very miserable time. After stopping it under appropriate supervision, you discover that you never needed it in the first place.
What do you do, laugh, cry, hope that something horrible happens to you so you can take the same da*n drug again and justify a wasted life? It's sort of like risking your life to find gold and discovering it's pyrite after losing all your posessions, family, and crew.
Now that's a case for consulting a cognitive dissonance psychologist.
It just may have happened to some. If you hear of an example, let me know.
