And, it is so well orchestrated that we believe in the doctors instead of ourselves. Just keep this in mind – the pharmaceutical industry not only have tight connections with doctors, they are involved in training them (brainwashing) to think the same way. Big business is all about repeat business. And anyone on meds is just that, a long term, hopefully for them, a life long source of income.

I am NOT brainwashed and I honestly consider that an insult. I became ill before I was on medications, before I was under psychiatric care, NOT as a result of those things. Medications have allowed me to live a pretty normal life. Without them, my mood takes dramatic shifts and becomes unmanageable. That's not a figment of my imagination.

I was a little insulted by it, as well farmergirl. And a little triggered too.
