Maybe it's because I can attribute pretty much everyone's 'personality disorders' to aspects outlined in Astrology (Of course, you have to factor in environmental influences and upbringing, too)...Most people don't buy into Astrology either, but at least I'm not trying to make a profit off of someone's problems.

Libras and Geminis are bi-polar/manic depressive
Cancers are codependent (to one person, while trying to shut out everyone else), insecure and usually depressed...When they're 'up' they're hyper and way up, when they're down, it's almost impossible to reach down far enough to pull them out.
Leos are overly aggressive and thrive on attention
Libras, Cancers and Leos tend to be hypocondriacs, largely due to paranoia...They read the symptoms of a disease and end up convincing themselves that they have it, to the point of physically manifesting the symptoms
Aries are generally aggressive and end up with quite a few 'issues', most of their own making (purposely or otherwise)
Tauruses have codependency issues and and insecurity (they need something or someone outside of themselves to make them feel secure)
Virgos are obsessive/compulsive and worry themslves too much
Pisces have incredibly addictive personalities...They can create an addiction out of just about anything, but they have to have SOMETHING

Libras, Geminis, Aries and Pisces are statistically the most 'medicated' signs

I can give you the psychological profile for every sign...And as ridiculous as you may think it is, I'm just as accurate as your 'psychiatrists'...I can also find anomalies within your Astrological charts for the uncommon ailments that may not be typically associated with your sun sign (emotions are usually controlled by your moon sign anyway...Especially Cancers...Changing moon phases can make them manic (full moon), depressed or somber (waning or 'weak' moon), irritable, etcetera).

Between psychiatrists with all their mind-altering chemicals and Astrology with all of its nonsense...Astrology is much safer.

Are people aware that EVERY kid so far who has been associated with school shootings has been taking these prescribed drugs?..I don't think the pills were helping, do you?...In fact, those types of incidents NEVER happened before these things became widely used...Maybe it's a bad idea to screw with a kid's brain that way.

Basically...I just don't think people need all these damned pills...Most of these drugs cause more problems than they supposedly solve...How did society ever make it before 'doctors' started throwing this shit at everyone?...It also upsets me that people are medicating their children instead of disciplining them...But, aren't the adults also medicating themselves rather than taking control of their lives and working out their problems?

So, you have a problem...Do you want to add dependancy on chemicals to that problem, along with feeling like you're too weak to handle things on your own?...What exactly does THAT do for your insecurity, self-esteem and dependency issues?...Wouldn't that kinda make you depressed?

I just happen to think that people are much stronger than they realize, and that 'psychiatrists' feed off of their weaknesses rather than help them realize their own strengths...Because, they can't make money if they tell people they're 'okay'.

And consider this...What IS a real 'mental disorder'?...in the 1700s, I would have been burned as a witch for liking sex as much as I do, only females who consort with satan would like sex, right?...In the 1800s, I would have been lobotomized for nymphomania, because only males are supposed to enjoy sex, true?...But now, well, I'm just sexually aggressive...

We ALL get depressed sometimes...We all get stressed sometimes to the point that we feel like we're gonna lose our minds...We all have to face problems and tragedies at some point...We all have our good days/moments and bad ones...We all get lonely sometimes and need someone to talk to...We all get sad sometimes...We all get angry occasionally...We are HUMAN, so we naturally have emotions...The key is to learn to CONTROL those emotions, which usually comes with maturity, experience and information...NOT drugs...You can't learn to control the emotions if you depend on drugs to do it for you.

And those who seem like they don't have emotions, well they've got pills for THAT, too...Even though that type of thing is generally the result of severe psychological abuse, torment or trauma to the point that someone has simply shut themselves off (it happens normally, it's a mental defense mechanism to preserve our sanity...Have some faith in human biology, we are amazing creatures)...Basically, we're all pretty 'normal'...I just truly think that some people have a self-serving agenda to try to make us believe otherwise.

Like Urge said, I don't mean to offend anyone (which is why I was reluctant to even respond to this thread), and every adult has the right to make their own decisions...I'm just throwing my own personal opinion out there...And I apologize if I HAVE offended anyone, it's just that this topic seriously upsets me.
This is the most ignorant piece of tripe that I have read in a very, very long time.

But, as a whole, I believe that there is far, FAR too much unnecessary medicating going on...It's the unnecessary cases (which I truly believe have become the majority), that I have a problem with.

EDIT: You have outlined pretty much every exception to what I've said (you're good at that )...And YOU are an excellent parent, you're there for your son, it's obvious how much you love him...You spend lots of time with him, you do what you know is best for him, you take a VERY active role in his life, and you are very protective of him.

But, you can't ignore the fact that not all parents are like you...Many choose pills as an easy alternative to parenting (I've seen it, it's disgusting and sad)...There are so many 'parents' these days who just don't have the time or the patience to take care of their children properly...These are the same parents who blame horror movies, video games, society, etcetera for their children's bad behavior, while accepting no fault themselves.
Of course there are exceptions. :eek:

You are entitled to your own opinion, Rayne, but to ignore those exceptions has absolutely nothing to do with simply "being offensive." It's just entirely two-dimensional, vain, short-sided, judgmental, and perpetuates the philistine social stigma that I alluded to above.
