You're reading Why is everything a disease or mental disorder today instead of just a little bit of abherent behavior? It limits the growth of the individual and diversity. I'm not trying to breakdown the fabric of society, or put down the medical field.

FINALLY! Someone with a brain! It's all control and money...NO medical proof, and people are out there drugging themselves for basic human behavior that deviates from what a bunch of over conservative, pompous, idiots have deemed as appropriate behavior! Kudos to you!

In fact many of these diseases, like depresssion for example, are so loosely defined that even doctors cannot decide when they should give them or not. So people take them like candies... They often do work by making you kind of high but they're unnecessary. Most problems can be resolved with therapy.
But there are also people who do need them. You can't tell a schizophrenic who's seeing illusions to not take his drugs.

Exactly sethis... though these conditions are loosely defined, scientist attempt to grasp an understanding of them and manipulates that certain aspect for a cure... you are not acknowledging the years, time and tests that go into constructing these substances, diagnosing these symptoms and testing these therapies... if I'm correct depression is a dangerous redution of endorphins in the body (do not quote me) but it's along those lines, mental disorders are majorily physical but others aren't, the ones that aren't are difficult to understand so of course any information on them are inconclusive but who better to deal with them than professionals? You're opinions are one sided, if psychiatry did not exist, tell me would one of you experts or maybe other critics of the field be able to deal with neurological issues?

Obviously not. Who said that psychiatry shouldn't exist? That doesn't mean they can never go wrong.
Every neurological disease is both psychological AND physical. The "soul" exists within the brain. Whenever you affect the "soul" through therapy and talking to a doctor you also affect the circuits in your brain and vice versa.
Most often depression is a result of depressive thoughts and can be cured by actually monitoring your thoughts and belief system through guidance of a trained professional.
There are things traditional therapy cannot treat hence the reason I added an exception in the end of my previous post. That's what are drugs for.
by Sethis on February 5th, 2012
The "soul" is chemically induced in the mind, not two distinct entities, depression is biologically related (research)... a majority of neurological disorders are physical, there is an acute amount that are not, those which are not are treated with the best known therapeutic methods...drugs and therapy are intertwined, they are the cures for the symptoms... like I've said, science can be indecisive at times however procedures are the only methods in treating and diagnosing foreign diseases
