I work in health care and the diagnosis of depression is exploding.
Because people are unhappy. There's no therapy to be happy in a clinical setting, just a prescription for pills that alters your mood, IF you have
Health Insurance.
Untreated depression leads to suicide. Sometimes the victim of depression recovers, but the statistics really show a problem.
Yes! You are
exactly right.
Anytime someone goes to a therapist now a days,
all they can expect is for the therapist to prescribe a pill and send them on their 'merry' way until the next
'exam" time.
Therapy today it NOT about working to find strategy and learn new ways to look at things but just be given pills and it those pills don't work, they
prescribe more types of pills.
Our modern day 'health care' has so many varieties of pills for each "ailment".
Therapy is just for pill distribution
How can people be truly happy in this society??
Many work dead end , boring jobs they hate and on top of this are treated like yesterday's trash while working in these jobs.
Our 'modern society' is NOT about being healthy or caring about healthy employees.
It is just about the 'bottom line'
the
holy dollar bill.
There are so many jobs today that frown on allowing their employees to take any amount of time off. They give them a hard time and even threaten their
jobs if the do take a vacation.
Yes, We live in a very unhappy dysfunctional society but yet
so many are also in denial about how really f'd up things really are...
It is easier to talk about what happened on 'american idol' than to discuss the REAL issues that matter.
The rag mags in all the grocery stores are a proof of this.

I have a nasty boss that isn't about to get help for her nasty dysfunctional weird personality.
BUT she can go FIX her nails on a weekly basis and make certain her finger nails look
spectacular!!
Just an example of our messed up society and it's neurotic denials...
