In layman's terms.
I would try to avoid the meds unless it's a last chance/hope situation. I still stand by what I said earlier.
I know this may sound strange, but what I have learned in my life is that sometimes, preferably when we are younger, we are supposed to have some stress in our lives. I'm not talking about war veterans, or people who may have been raped, or any kind of trauma like that. But to grow emotionally and be adults, we must face the stresses of life. It's part of life. If you don't learn to face these stresses of life and grow emotionally when you're younger, then you'll be running from stresses for the rest of your life by way of alcohol, drugs, sexual addictions, eating disorders, and of course, the meds. I believe that the core problem that drives this emotional addiction to these things is called 'obsessive compulsive disorder'. The way that I see it, and correct me if I'm wrong, is that it's basically emotional immaturity that is self trained to avoid stress in various ways, and as a result, being permanently needing these secondary things to deal with the stress. It's an emotional addiction.
To use alcoholism or drugs as an example, if you have a history of substance abuse, you're stunting your emotional growth. In other words, as a byproduct of this habit, you're teaching yourself to run to alcohol or drugs to avoid stress. The way to overcome that, permanently, and not be a slave to alcohol or drugs emotionally for the rest of your life, is to face the stress and learn to deal with it by growing emotionally. A.A. calls it 'one day at a time'. Most drug addicts and alcoholics experience this emotional growth later in life, when it's more difficult. What makes it so hard to quite, is not the physical addiction, rather, it's the emotional addiction. It's a trained, emotional addiction. But quitting drugs or alcohol and then taking meds doesn't solve the problem, it only avoids it. The core problem is still there. See what I mean? You can't substitute one for another and fix the core problem. Alcoholism, for a sexual addiction, doesn't solve the core problem. Drug addiction for meds, doesn't cure the core problem. The obsessive compulsive disorder is still there. The core of the addiction has not been dealt with, emotional immaturity. They are curing the symptoms, not the phycological disease.
People in the industry may have good intentions, but the industry itself is corrupted. It was one of the first to advance the communist goals which states openly that their cause needs to take the psychiatric profession and use it as a transition belt for their agenda. They were the first to promote homosexuality as natural, normal and healthy, children not needing the negative influence of their parents, the whole transgender movement, etc.. A person given a pill to avoid stress is going to tell you that they are cured and give positive reports, but are they really cured? Is a lifetime of avoiding stress through pills that much less destructive than doing it by way of alcohol, or drugs? It only invites all those other things. All this on national child abuse awareness month. They're advertising this at the library by me. I tell them, how can it be national child abuse awareness month when it's already 'tough love isn't child abuse, you dumb communist month'?
The way things are going right now, with children being drowned in sex at the earliest age for one, is just another way for emotional growth to be stunted. Man, this country is a mess.
