I use to be super anti prescription meds. Then I realized I was way too high strung and finally tried one of those pills that chills you out. Life changing and this one you don't build up a tolerance

this is where everyone agrees, but they are on one or more prescriptions themselves and they're the exception

LOL, if you scroll all the way down the article it starts with a prescription drug quiz that ultimately leads you to selling you more prescription drugs.

How old is old?

What meds are we talking about here, anyway? Big difference between some major ailment and something like finasteride because someone wants to keep their hair.

I do not know your situation, so this comment is certainly not directed at you.

It just strikes me as extremely odd that 70% of Americans "need" to introduce an artificially-created substance into their bodies in order to live a "normal" life.

I'm like this. Indica slows my mind a bit but Its still racing all the time.

Nothing really works long term on me, it seems though.

There are thousands of things that can make a person have to take a script for the rest of their lives and being healthy doesn’t get rid of the issue.

Seventy percent? Isn't that the percent of overweight or obese people? Strange.
