I think the word depression is probably thrown around way to much and those that just feel icky or sad for a day or two are like oh I'm depressed I need medicine when there are those of us out there suffering from the chemical imbalance trying to find the one or combo of meds and hardly able to get out of bed or unable to go to the store for a loaf of breed because of anxiety. Yes our society might jump on prescription meds to fast but there are many prescription meds that are very nessisary and the alternative could be death or using a vitamin could be even be more dangerous because there not FDA regulated and some really have crazy scary side effects. I think no one can really understand how nessisary prescription meds are until they have to have them. No a pill does not fix everything and therapy is required but the right meds are a very important part. I think sometimes this hotlistic stuff goes great for some but when you have a very sick dog I think that can change pretty fast. |
Believe me, I know about depression. My stepdad and mother struggle with it every single day. Losing a child will do that to you. My mom has had anxiety problems for 20 years though. I will say, my mom saw great improvement in herself when she got off most of her pills, and began going to the gym and training every week. I've struggled with bits of depression as well since my brother died but never wanted to get on medication because I never felt mine was severe enough. Whereas my grandpa has been on antidepressants for over 20yrs and recently decided to wean off of them and was
horrible. He really
needs them to be happy. And he's usually the most positive person in the world, it was very sad to see him depressed.
Totally not against them. Not even disagreeing with you. Completely agree that 'natural' is not always better.
But when it comes to vaccines, there is loads of evidence proving otherwise.
