This movie has to be seen by everyone - especially in today’s society where anti-depressants are prescribed as often as Tylenol.

I totally agree with you on doctors pushing the prescription pad, especially when it comes to mental illnesses.
As a society we are taught that drugs are the answer. How many times have you watched tv and DIDN’T see an advertisement for some kind of anti-depressant, sexual enhancement or other kind of ’quick fix’ drug? Because of this mass marketing of drugs, people are not turning to other resources....NATURAL(and often times, cheaper) resources.
There are many many things that can be eliminated using natural remedies. People just don’t get that message because legally, the big brother FDA can not(will not?) approve them as a treatment. My first inkling to that is because where’s the money for big pharmaceutical companies in natural remedies?
If you just take a little bit of time to do a quick research, you’ll find that there are plenty of remedies for every day illnesses, even some of the milder ’mental’ illnesses such as depression.
Anyway, I could go on and on about this, but I have to get going to work!
