Medication: A Tool In The Tool Box
Manage episode 401022002 series 2809933
One of the tools in the toolbox for combatting depression are medications. There are varied opinions held by the church concerning medications for depression.
Personally, I can say medications have been a tremendous help for me. I see no problems in using them. They are not addictive, but when they work they can help a person immensely.
I'm not sure why anyone wouldn't want something that can ease pain and suffering? I encourage people to reach out and get help from the weight and scourge of depression.
In my opinion, the arguments against medications are extremely weak and not thought out.
