Would you ever take anti anxiety medication?

They are true feelings. I know that there's no scans or tests that can be done. I was stating what an alternative to the current method would look like, in my mind. We don't currently have the technology for that though, which is something I acknowledge and I never assumed otherwise. I know that this is very cynical, but we are not very advanced in terms of medicine. I see that there's a lot of people who are untreatable, we still haven't discovered ways of altering the degeneration of DNA molecules that results in aging. We don't even seem to be interested in working towards ways to prevent illness. All that modern medicine does is treat the illnesses we inevitably get from the degeneration of our cells. There is no dying of natural causes, something fails and we get sick one way or another. I refuse to call what we have today advanced or a treatment when that's not really what it is.

Not interested in ways of preventing illness? All modern medicine does is treat illness? No dying from natural causes?

You need to do a lot more research, maybe grow up, or both.

Again, if you don't like modern medicine you can always opt out. Or, if you choose, work to improve it.

Alright, you can choose to believe that hereditary, or developed cell malfunction isn't the cause of these problems. You can keep putting drugs into your body and acting like that's fixing anything. I'll be over here trying to "grow up" while you have a fun time sucking big pharma's dick.

Gene therapy is the future of medicine.

And yeah, there is no dying from natural causes. If you die, it's because of some sort of illness. Aging is an illness, it's the degeneration of cells. That's besides the point, because if there's a malfunction in the brain, then that's a cellular malfunction too. We just don't have the technology to treat these things.
