@notdevin.eth and his holy war on anti-depressants has never seen postpartum depression, ptsd, sad, etc
what about pain medications for termally ill people?
there are, for sure, drugs that shouldn't be needed, e.g. ozempic, blood pressure drugs, etc—this is managed by diet and exercise much better, yet requires systemic changes (i.e. making junk food less available)
on the other hand, there's way more evidence that animal products cause harm than that seed oils cause harm (literally all the evidence says seed oils are safe)—yet people are afraid of seed oils while indulging on red meat daily
the world is nuanced and there're no easy solutions 2 replies

> I have, the solution is in your sleep, food, and exercise
oof, Devin, this is very dangerous notion you have here, i'm talking as a clinical psychologist here
it's like trying to deal with cancer by using essential oils
depression, ptsd, sad are real diseases that have physical manifestations in the brain chemistry, and these physical manifestations *do not* go away after people fix their diet, sleep and exercise
i'm afraid that you haven't dealt with real depression and trying to extrapolate your personal experience for the larger population
but this leads to issues like Jobs dying from a very treatable form of cancer
again, we *can see* clinical depression in the brain with fMRI and can clearly diagnose it like we can diagnose a tumor, and we can also see the healing like you see a scratch or a cut healing
it does not heal with diet, sleep and exercise in *most* people, unfortunatelly 2 replies
