I am happy to announce that I have been off of psyc meds for two years now. No depression and no anxiety meds for the PTSD from military service. Diet was a big driving force for getting off psyc drugs. Home raised foods, meats, veggies and such with no added chemicals made me whole again. And the weight loss was another added bonus. No vaccines, no drugs, no processed foods, and lots of natural proteins have worked wonders.

Sounds like all these new "wonder drugs" are solutions in search of a profitable problem. No thank you. I have always been a little resistant to the idea that a pill will cure my PTSD. After all, a pill did not cause the PTSD. I am glad that there are some pills that help me by tamping down the symptoms. I can take or leave them depending on the situation. That makes life better, but it is not a cure. I had a relative by marriage with Schizophrenia. She was quite open with me when talking about her condition. She recognized that none of the medication offered to her was a cure. She taught me a great deal about learning to deal with my condition. She took a more Judo like approach to her Schizophrenia than seeking a cure. I have worked on approaching my PTSD in a similar manner. I am in awe of the grace she displayed. I know I am more contented and able to manage my life now that I leverage my PTSD instead of fighting it. No "wonder drugs" for me. Ignore the Pushers. For guidance, listen to the Steppenwolf song. After all, the Pushers want us dead.
