Why do people take antidepressants and drugs to deal with thier emotions? Sure, it makes you feel good and happy, but keep in mind that you're LYING to yourselves, and everyone around you. Here's the shocker; THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. Taking drugs is a coward and a fool's way out of dealing with reality. just because you don't feel sad or angry about your problem, that doesn't mean it went away, you morons.

Example: Someone dies, you feel sad about it, you take some pills. "All better!"
WRONG.
The person is still dead, and nothing can be done to "fix" it, espcially not covering it up with lies.

Think about it, doesn't taking prozac seem quite the same as getting drunk or high to deal with your problems? the only difference is that you can still think relatively clearly and feel happy, but (hopefully) not crazy as well. Eventually, If keep taking that stuff, you'll probobly become a brainless, smiling lunatic whose only words are "Everything is good, there's nothing wrong with anything, do you feel happy? happy? happy?" It's sad, but should I take drugs for it?

BOTTOM LINE: Taking medicine to deal with your emotions is not only foolish, but it's a great way to become a soulless robot.

That's this week's rant, I'm Varmeip, Goodnight.
