The 2 most sold and used pills in the U.S are anti acid (digestive issues) and anti depressants (mental issues). Ayurveda points out that the two roots of disease start in the mind and stomach. One is responsible for digesting, distributing and cleaning the system while the other is in charge of how we think and therefore exist. If you mess with these two systems then all other systems will work with difficulty.
The question is why are you depressed (the root) and not how to just treat the symptom. These pills are highly addictive and as a person should be trying to workout why they feel the way they do and now take action to heal themselves. These drugs keep you in a state of humbleness where the mind cannot think clearly and at the same time create more toxins in the blood stream which need cleaning out. This residue from the drugs can be present in the system and blood for many years as they are very toxic. It is escapism from ones responsibilities or actions to a state of weakness and non involvement.
I had a client on their way to me in Los Angeles when they called me to say they could not drive as the doctor had prescribed Prozac a few days earlier. The issue was that 7 years ago she had lost her husband and had financial difficulties so she and her children had to move in with her parents. She was not working and was in a state of shock for all this time. Doctors and psychiatrists not knowing what to do with her prescribed pills.
Putting her on an anti depressant made her check out of reality and into a state of numbness so she had an excuse to do nothing about her life. We spoke for a while and it seemed that she needed some encouragement to come out of one way of thinking and into a state of doing not vegging out. With a few herbal medicines and some dietary changes she is now on her way to recovering the time she has lost with her children and her own life.
If you ever have to deal with any type of difficulty try to view the situation as some sort of learning process and put your attention on this point of view. Yoga therapy will help you with this recovery as it will bring self realization into the mind. It is best not to rely on any type of drugs which inhibit your judgments and actions as your attention should be on healing and awareness of the higher power in you. This will take away the energy of negativity and any kind of loss or defeatism that we might be feeling.

woohoo Yogi Cameron!(hey r u there somewhere?)I’ve eaten so many dates (purposefully) and now i want a date with YOU.wink: May the magic begin.
If one takes life too seriously and is serious all the time one will never get out of a depression.I’ve been there and i know what it’s like.I’ve taken anti-depressants too and i refused to take any because that was not the real me!The best anti-depressant is ”to act silly”.
”Get stupid,Get stupid,Get stupid,don’t stop it,to the left,to the right,to the left,to the right ” - Madonna in Give it 2 Me.
I know that even Kylie Minogue loves to act silly.
How else do you think you want to live and cope up with life?What is life about and what is life for you if you don’t laugh at life then life will laugh back at you for being *F* stupid.Because Life is FUN and that is what life wants each being to understand and know.So you got to obey the rules of life.Learn to ride the horse named LIFE!
Now, - another tip what always helps in all situations are Crystals and semi-precious and precious stones.These are subtances from the core of the earth and carry specific energies with them.So when we are in direct contact with these stones,either by wearing them on our bodies or by carrying them close to our bodies and meditating on them,they energize us with the energies.They are not necessarily expensive and therefore only the wealthy can obtain them,but they are available as non-polished stones as well in all esoteric and new age shops and cost just a few bucks.The size does not matter!!!Remember the size of the stone is irrelevant to it’s energy working.The stone carries the same energy in whatever size you purchase it.All you got to do is inform yourself what stone carries what energy and in which situation would you like to be helped by these energies and then you purchase your stone.
So,-this is a natural help from Mother Earth and She does not like you to take drugs and anti- depressants and alcohol and the likes.Mother Earth has all you need for a healthy body and mind and a beautiful and healthy life.
So -
” What are you waiting for,
Nobody’s gonna show you how,Why wait for someone else,
To do what you can do right now? ” Madonna in Give it 2 Me
