Psychology even admits that things like PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder and social anxiety cannot be cured, only "managed". Well, I don't want to exhaust myself extra much more than other people just to "manage" my depression and anxiety, while other people go through simple life challenges effortlessly.
I need to waste my time to go through cognitive behavioral therapy and it's not even free. I should actually be paid to go through it because I didn't ask to develop depression and anxiety.
Only drugs like alcohol, opioids and benzos actually work to reduce mental symptoms, but they are all banned, although they are bullshit too because tolerance builds up so fast.
I'm sure, in 500 years if psychological science develops further (big IF), we will look back and see SSRIs, cognitive behavioral therapy and electro shock treatment as dumb ineffective treatments at best, and as barbaric at worst.
