I would differ with you in this. Fundamentally. I will use what is necessary today, but I will seek to change the conditions which are causal, rather than focusing upon the symptoms. This is the downfall of western medicine, and medicine in general, and can only be considered by those who have been down a long road of exposure.
The best cases I can point to tell me this: health is found more in lifestyle than in medicine (preventive or otherwise), and in consideration of the fact that when your number is up, one meets that occasion with a full realization thereof, with an effort to exit this mortal coil in a stately manner.
That much can be categorically denied. I would encourage you to research deaths by prescription... and the more vague death by secondary symptoms of prescriptions. Death by doctor is a very real thing.

How right you are.
Death By Medicine
http://www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2004/3/awsi_death/Page-01Contact with the mental health system almost invariably insures diagnosis, treatment, and further contact/entanglement with that system.
Psychiatry's schtick for decades is that moods, thoughts and behaviors are a product of biological causation, either a brain chemical imbalance or a combination of genetic factors.
Current science has yet to establish a base line normal of the brain chemicals serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. It is therefore categorically impossible to determine any postulated imbalance of those chemicals.
