Hey, sirwagginston. Thanks for the comment. I would agree, but the evidence tends to suggest that these compounds actually create chronically ill individuals over the long term. In this sense, people definitely do not need their drugs...at least not the chemicals handed out by psychiatrists. Furthermore, there is not any strong evidence that the brain "misfires" to produce psychosis. The current cause of "schizophrenia" is unknown, but most psychiatrists will claim that it is a mixture of environment, personal psychology, and genetics. I tend to think it hinges more on relationship problems and difficulties in life, which lead a person to manufacture these symptoms. But that is a whole other conversation.
