This is a true message. Like you stated, this does not disqualify the usefulness of medications. It only reveals that permanent healing has never been proven to be achieved long-term through chemical medication.
Psychotherapy can be helpful for many, if the therapist is a professional who has been specially trained in the area that the patient is struggling with. Many times, this screening process is not possible due to a lack of adequate funds to pay for a higher line of mental health support.
Therefore, medication usage has been increased to make up for the lack of healing experienced in the sufferer's lives. This is what led me to overcome my illnesses without medication and psychotherapy. Had I an opportunity to heal with aid from the medical advances of our modern world, I would have certainly been open to it. Again, thank you for sharing this.

I agree with everything you've said! Lol. This message sounds a lot like how I feel about modern medicine & my own path to healing. Only my experience from the failings of the pharmaceutical industry have to do with my Mother. She has lupus & fibromyalgia. Instead of getting her to a rheumatologist, psychologist, & neurologist; her GP got her hooked on dangerous painkillers & antianxiety medications. Gave her antidepressants without recognizing that she was bipolar & they would drive her into mania. Even being completely modest, I'd have to say that modern medical care ****ed up a great deal of my family's lives.
