With the recent Germanwings airline crash I think you will find out the co-pilot might have been on medication that changed him in a very negative way. Many friends and family simply will not understand his brain could have very well been hijacked by the medications and one does not have control of their thoughts.
I often see many on the forums recommending those who are suffering any type of hair loss depression to consult a professional. Of course this seems like the responsible thing to do while also putting one in a position of not having to take any personal responsibility which is how many systems are set up. Refer to the professionals and this makes it a closed system which is much more profitable but not always best.
I can tell you from my own reading on the medical industry in general that the mental health industry is completely owned lock, stock and barrel by the pharmaceutical industry. Not only that but often times those same medications will rewire your brain and you will never be the same person again. Kind of like a bad hair transplant that can t be fixed only this time it s your brain.
Many in the ht industry throw around the use of medications which are used in the mental health industry very loosely because they simply do not have enough information so they tend to speak and write out of complete ignorance.
I recently read 2 very good books filled with examples of actual cases that can show you exactly what happens. For those interested I highly recommend them.
Mad In America (Bad Science, Bad Medicine, and the Enduring Mistreatment of the Mentally Ill) Robert Whitaker
Anatomy of an Epidemic (Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness in America)Robert Whitaker
What s even more enlightening is reading the history of the industry itself. One has to say my God what was going through the minds of these so called professionals. How could any one human do this to another. Excellent information to have for yourself and your loved ones.
Research yourself and become your own professional and rely less on the advice of others. When you read enough, listen enough and observe enough you can then form your own opinion and not have it handed to you which if much safer.
