The mental health system has no intention to cure anybody.
It can't. And won't.
All it does is drug people. Anti-psychotics are the drug
class of - major - tranquilizers; the strongest of the tranquilizers.
Does this make any sense?
Tranquilize away symptoms?
This is never able to reach the cause. It remains unchanged.

You are right Tom that if someone wants to get over schizophria
it is entirely possible. Those are people who take control
of there lives. The rest are drugged-zommbies.
I've seen it.

But most people are losers at life.
So what can I say?
