Fairly Depressing

Before I go on my travels, I just feel the need to draw readers' attention here to the weblog (on this 'Right Minds') site ) of Dr Robert Lefever. He has chosen to write about the very serious subject of 'antidepressant' drugs, a matter I have discussed here. I increasingly believe that the resort to these highly questionable chemicals, like the 'treatment' of the fictional complaint 'ADHD' with powerful mood-altering drugs, is part of the same cultural and moral sickness which has led to the de facto decriminalisation of drugs which were once despised, rightly feared, and properly banned by law.

 

We are a society increasingly unwilling to face, recognise or deal with reality.

 

In any case, I commend the Doctor's article to you. I was especially struck by his mention of Aldous Huxley's fictional panacea, 'Soma'.
