I stopped taking medication a few days ago and now I can't pay attention to 99% of news stories.

It's gay... why should I have to take amphetamines, destroying my teeth and making my skin more easily scarred? There are enough people like me to warrant a profitable demographic.

Besides, i'd violently rape 99% of the population. Taking medication makes me weaker. I've proven it in the world of video game competition. In fact, i've been diagnosed with both serotonin and dopamine 'disorders'. Taking either type of medication makes me substantially worse at video games.

Rapidly changing subjects... that's all a person like me needs. Instead, society forces me to buy and use drugs. Why must I conform to society instead of the other way around? I am nature... society should conform to nature.

Depression is your brain trying to quickly destroy bad growth. By taking pills instead of accepting the pain, you actually hurt yourself by prolonging the destruction.

Anxiety disorders are mix-ups... like pavlov's dog. Society has caused 'fear' to misapplicate itself.

This whole psychiatry/FDA debacle goes to prove, yet again, only an idiot trusts the government.

The weird thing is, there are no chemical differences causing 'disorders'. Do these chemicals even naturally exist in the brain? If so, do they even remotely cause the sorts of things psychiatrists claim? Maybe they just regulate rate of line change and rate of subject change.

The government always tells you, 'don't smoke weed, it screws with your brain... but take these instead, government approved drugs that are guaranteed to not cause mass-murder school-shootings, unlike heroin and crack; these government approved drugs don't fuck up your brain or body in any way... they were sent by heaven, therefore approved by the government.'.

Is it really so unrealistic to say a bunch of SEA assholes would fund their secret wars using money from the illegal drug-trade? Seems right on target. What easier way to make yourself feel less inferior/more superior than by killing a bunch of defenseless third-worlders? The only way to fund such a horribly evil and illegal endeavor would be through illegal means. The drug trade is the only illegal industry capable of providing enough money.

In fact, it fits to a fucking T. It is even capped by the deceptively pleasurable feeling of brain-growth (a feeling most falsely interpret to mean what they are doing is virtuous).

Maybe you assholes should quietly kill the crap, officially legalize the good drugs (like marijuana), while outlawing the mass-murder causing drugs (like prozac). Or at the very least, on the outlawing side, explain what these 'heaven-sent-prescription' drugs are actually doing.

those anti-pot commercials on tv are the pinnacle of absurdity considering that during most sporting events and adult demographic oriented programming the act of drinking alcohol is presented as normal social behavior despite the destructive effects it has on the health of an individual. the truth is smoking marijuana can make a person introspective, and that causes thought, which leads to the gateway drug called "independence", and that is considered bad business and runs counter-intuitive to mainstream values.
