this is why i don't trust pharmaceutical drugs or the company's who make them...

The person with their natural body chemistry prior to taking medication was not a person in the slightest. She was a ghoul. I find the idea of going back to being anywhere near that person to be a horrifying one.

Too many people who try to seek help come in contact with uncaring doctors who think a compliant, uncomplicated patient is a good patient. Like GPs who have no business prescribing medication willy-nilly without any intermediate steps.

For someone who is grieving the loss of a loved one who is sad and generally depressed (normal, healthy emotions for someone to feel in that situation) to be prescribed anti-depressants at the drop of a hat during a GP visit is disgusting. I know someone this happened to who rightly questioned her doctor (by explaining she was just genuinely sad) and refused the Rx. It's such a mess.

I think ultimately humanity has the potential but will unfortunately never achieve it. I get very frustrated (angry and sad) when seeing how people could do so much more for themselves but don't realize it or have become understandably hopeless over time. I have a loose theory that, especially in the last several decades, fewer people see the power that comes with trusting their instincts and intuition.

How do the British people here feel about Prince Harry marrying a divorced half black American?

Hmm... I think these breads are funky-fresh and the circuses traditionally intriguing. I would really like to take several hours into looking into the current state of Great Britain to connect with prior knowledge.
Then there is the preparation for Brexit which will be... interesting.

Hopefully, the couple and their future do well. Over the past several years, I just keep seeing the U.K. really showing their inconsistencies when it comes to rulings on things when it comes to charges on hate speech and other negative presences on the Isle, as though they tr to preemptively try to deal with their more liberal citizens. Sorry I've gone off topic, but I hope that there is a more accurate record put forth of what Parliament actually thinks when the consequences and scrutiny of the EU aren't staring them in the face and balls.

Anger is our natural defence against pain. So, when you say you're angry at something, you really mean it has hurt you. When you're searching something to get angry at, you really don't know the source of your pain, or better, you know and refuse to see it.
You can choose to live your life being angry at everybody, hurting yourself, but truth is, its very peacefull when you stop and realize that, whatever has happened, now YOU are the one in charge, noone else can hurt you, except yourself.
Edit:
Oups, sorry, I meant to put this at "I hate humanity" post...

I think I might personally say that frustration is the defense and immediate reaction against pain. It took until I was about 21 until I could actually get angry as opposed to immediate intense sadness.

In general, I'm not fond of people as whole, so I'm going to try to put out positive energy towards respectful people and work until I can move to a more remote location with my partner. It's a goal to do what I can for myself and against those who abuse their power while protecting my loved ones at all costs.

@Jebus-Zeus Your post reminds me of what a favorite author and person of mine, Michelle McNamara, has said, "It's chaos; be kind." People have done [life/whatever they want] and will. I just try to encourage positive, passionate people when I can in a sincere manner. I agree with you, OP, that there is no one to get angry at. It's helpful to acknowledge how the actions/interactions with others influence who you are today, but when life is as simplistic as can be, one only has themselves. There they may decide if they will make sure to be there for whatever loved ones they may have, if any.

I'm not sure about you, but I'm far to nosy (my boyfriend would probably say, "inquisitive") to go insane, too far inside my mind, and not see as much of what plays out against humanity as long as I'm physically able to comprehend it.

I am somewhat biased due to my own positive experience with pharmaceuticals, but that doesn't blind me from how often doctors prescribe medications like SSRI's and anti-psychotics. When a person doesn't need an adjustment with their brain chemistry and actually needs a chance to be heard and understood as opposed to medicated, then the unwarranted medication will make them worse. It's the same with many medications that are taken when unnecessary- it will mess with your very delicate system.

When it comes to body chemistry @Grim_Hardcastle I don't think that people should be needing to take medications, Prozac (one of the Rx's I take) for example, for years on end in order to function in their daily lives without longing for death, but our body chemistry has already been screwed with when it comes to the immense amount of chemicals people and the mothers who bore them have been exposed to over the last 100 years. It's not surprising that our brain chemistry, (along with our intestinal, immune, and hormonal systems) has changed as well.

There really is so much, as you said, "danger tampering with the body chemistry," when health organizations really don't seem to be factoring in all of the very serious environmental influences on the body. I think of the FDA as a train station that collects money and clips your ticket before saying, "Next!" They aren't something to measure jack-****shit against.

I just hope that people will take more interest in how their body works instead of listening to those who try to "teach" them who mainly have dollar-signs obstructing their vision. A third of the time, I'm hopeful that people will figure this out before my vague idea of when it's "too late." Humans can do so much more than what they think is expected of them and what they're capable of.

Everyone should read this article from Field & Stream magazine, whether you've experienced depression or not.

That was an excellent article. With few words the monster that is clinical depression was characterized quite well. I have depression and know that feeling of feeling like what ever bad happens to you is well deserved and to be expected. Treatment, reinforcing my inner circle with steel, and reflection have helped me reach an age I never really pictured myself getting to.
