How Teen Suicide "Experts" Miss the Cause of Depression and Focus Only On the Symptoms

How Teen Suicide "Experts" Miss the Cause of Depression and Focus Only On the Symptoms - zerohedge.com

Excerpt from this article:

"With a tear in her eye his mother joked that if J.C. was still alive, she would ground her sixteen-year-old son for killing himself. Unfortunately, her attempt to remain somewhat lighthearted after her son’s death reveals the tragic root of the problem. Teens have more legal restrictions than ever before. And as society continues to get stricter, teen suicide is skyrocketing. The suicide rate for white children and teens between 10 and 17 was up 70% between 2006 and 2016..."

Seven Dirty Secrets that Counselors and Mental Health Pros Won't Tell You

Seven Dirty Secrets that Counselors and Mental Health Pros Won't Tell You - eatthesunlight.com

Excerpt from this article:

"1. Get 'Em On Drugs and Out the Door ...
4. Money Determines the Diagnosis ...
5. Money Determines What Truth is Told ...
7. You Are Just a Number in a Bean Counter's Register. The bottom line is that it's about the bottom line. So many clients, so much money. Keep the practices full, the insurance companies appeased, and the revolving door turning."
----------------------------------------

A mental health professional once said to his client: "This is a game. It's rigged. And I'm going to win. You either play be my rules or I'll draw a small box and put you in it!"

Maybe there is a grain of truth to the old joke:

Neurotics builds castles in the sky
Psychotics live in them
Psychiatrists collect the rent!

Sorry Lucy. I'm sure your advice is worth every bit of 5 cents. But somethings in life really are free. And peace is one of them. So the next time someone comes to your booth and asks you to tell them how to get peace, tell them to listen to the following message by Mark H. Meyers:

Scientists Discover Brain's 'Misery Molecule' Which Affects Stress, Anxiety and Depression

Scientists discover brain's 'misery molecule' which affects stress, anxiety and depression | Mail Online:

"Scientists have found the brain's 'misery molecule' believed to be responsible for all of our feelings of stress and anxiety. Researchers believe that the protein - named CRF1 - could also be linked to depression."

There are worse things in life than being anxious and depressed. I have no doubt that scientists can discover more effective ways to make us feel better - and for many, these are appropriate and even life saving advances in medicine that even Christians should support.

But there is a danger in trying to cover up depression and anxiety that is brought about by our own sins. The Bible says: "For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of. But the sorrow of the world worketh death."    - 2 Corinthians 7:10
