It's bullshit imo, you can control your mind and condition it to feel emotions you want it to feel. Don't take the hapless victim approach.

by the way what's an indigo child again @Objective

If only that were true NYCSpitz.. Me and my therapist went through several NON-MEDICAL TREATMENTS and we made a plan that I should follow and went through with progress etc. for about a year. It is a flawless system, but it doesn't work on me due to a lot of factors. He has retired now though but I still got the system. The therapist I went to didn't believe in meds either. However, after 5 years of trying to treat sleep without meds you reach a point where you start out with the weakest prescription drugs you can find and then move up from there if the first doesn't work. I'm not on xanax etc., I'm simply using a tool to help me get my life back on track, it's not something I'm supposed to use for the rest of my life.
Saying that meds is bullshit is extremely individual and depends solely on your body's chemical balance. And you saying depression etc. is bullshit along with controlling your mind to feel the emotions you want to feel is also dependant on your chemical balance and how you react to certain things just like how beer is different on different people. What works for you might not work on others etc. You are talking a lot about shit from your own experience which doesn't hold up if you're going to talk about psychology in general. It simply doesn't work that way so I'd advice you to not be so blunt about it because I've tried, probably a lot more than you care to realize. And any doctor that says that you got to take this and this prescription shit for the rest of your life is probably not a doctor you should continue seeing in the first place, I know you're exaggerating but you get my point.

Also; I have never said anything is incurable. I think they are, but certain illnesses is still a mystery puzzle that needs to be solved.
