The Marketing of Madness (1/18) psychiatry
Psychiatrists really have a way of marketing. If a person has ups and downs they're suddenly bipolar, and if they just lost a loved one they have major depression disorder, and if they're stressed they have anxiety disorder. 99% of the time you go to a psychiatrist they will try to put a "name" on your problem to make it seem worse, and give you drugs. There is no proven way that these drugs work, they impair you even more. Be careful, it's all marketing, and they try to put disorders in your head and make you think that something is wrong with you....almost like you're in the modeling career making skinny girls think they're fat. Watch out!

The mind is such an exaggerator.
The mind is such an exaggerator....Especially when it comes to wishes within our hearts. Sometimes we long for something for a grand amount of time, and go to bed really wishing and praying for it, because of the beautiful portrait we've painted in our minds of it. We think of it as the answer of all our problems, and make it seem like the one perfect thing we need, we over-exaggerate since we only see the outsider perspective of it.
We brainwash ourselves.
Then, finally, you get it. It doesn't seem as perfect. We've sugarcoated it in our minds so much, because we really don't have any general knowledge on how things really are. Suddenly, you're an insider. You see the realistic side, not necessarily the pessimistic side. Something that I've been wishing for isn't truly as great, and i'm glad, because now I don't have to fight to attain the "greatness" of it, and I got closure and insight. Some of the things we wish for, aren't as good as they seem, so don't waste all of your time on it. You could be blinded by your desires--- if you've only seen it from an outsider view.
