relevant to the thread, but not immediately relative to the ongoing convo...
i've always found the idea of taking pills to combat what i view as the human emotional spectrum a strange one. i don't ever know why, but i just don't trust it. i'm not claiming to know that it's bad for you or that doctors are full of it (although heavily indoctrinated thought is also something i have a hard time trusting), but the idea just doesn't sit right with me. i don't judge those that do take pills to deal with their issues, i just choose to stay away from it. i also stay away from doctors, because in the end, it's up to me which one i choose to believe and roll with, which is essentially a form of self-diagnosis.
ANYWAY. i thought this video was very interesting when i watched it a couple weeks ago. just a TED Talk about pills and such, for those who might be interested.
