Should We Medicate for the 'Inner-Man'?
Hey everyone and welcome back to Deeper Roots.
One of the great things about today’s society is the fact that we now have an understanding of what mental health is and how our psychological well-being can effect the way we handle our lives and the situations our lives drag us through. This understanding however leads to this assumption that we can fix everything which is often the nature of mankind. We see something we don’t like, so we fix it.
It wasn’t until recently where people started talking about things like ADHD, ADD, anxiety, and depression. And it also wasn’t until recently where we are able to medicate for it. But considering that we don’t actually fully understand how our brain works, should we consider medication, or is there other steps to helping people? That is what a listener asked: “Should we use medication to treat anxiety?” This is quite specific, but we are going to be addressing this as a whole with other mental illnesses like the ones I mentioned before.
This great question, along with the other wonderful questions we have received, were all submitted online, and if you want to ask you own question, you can at ibbvn.org/deeperroots. On that website, there is a form where you can submit a question, follow up on a question, or even just give some feedback. We would love to hear it.
Thank you for joining us today. Let’s get to the conversation!
