Re: More evidence emerges that Americans are drugged out of their minds
"I
am not against conventional doctors or pharmaceutical drugs. What I object to is
that they don't allow any competition with alternative Science based medicine."
That was not the impression that I have perceived from your previous and many
other posts. From your statement above, I think that actually we are in
significant agreement in that regard.
What I took significant exception to was your link that provided the usual
Scientology bash of psychiatry (I think so, as I said I can't hear well enough
to listen). Psychiatry is far from perfect, but so is every professional category
on the planet, yet that shouldn't prevent people from seeking professional help
of any kind but you have to research the professional provider you plan to hire
in any area. It's only common sense. I used the Scientology analogy
previously and will continue to do so because the very ones who bash psychiatry
are generally the ones who are nuts themselves and Scientology proves it.
They provide an e-meter, "auditing" and programming/hypnosis of their
members to "cure" mental issues or more correctly to correct
"improper thinking." (Yes, I had a friend who went through the
Scientology program who tried to get me to join.) My point is, if that's
all the psychiatry bashers have for an alternative they have pretty lame
reasoning for avoiding psychiatry. I find that true for most folks who
bash the profession as a whole.
When real science discovers the validity of alternative medicine, they
generally incorporate it into the mainstream - and Omega 3 is a recent example
of that.
