heh...Freud himself looked forward to the day when most psychiatric
disorders could be treated by drugs, but that being said...

I think I agree with you here. I'd rather have someone TALK to me than
DRUG me for my problems anyday. Heck, I'd even put up with a good old
Freudian if it came down to it.

Still, I have several rather level headed friends that tell me many
psychiatric disorders are brought on by chemical imbalances, and there's
nothing wrong with taking meds to help that. At the same time, well, I
just can't reconcile myself to that very well at all in most cases...
