Normal might be a strong word. It messes with the brain which is the core.

Goes to show a lot of clinical medecine is about short-term relief and not necessarily about real health.

If you really look at it with unbiased eyes, between elective surgeries and what not, it's not really about curing any true dysfunction sometimes. Perhaps too many times.

We just go with the flow but, heck, MDs are not even necessarily healthier than you, some even smoke to this day!

Go figure...

You've gone off on an unrelated tangent here. "Situation normal" in this case means that, as with lots of drugs, we only poorly understand the mechanism by which they actually work, and that new discoveries can completely change our understanding of how to use and improve on them.

Well I don't think that this is a tangent at all then.

What I said is still exactly on point.
