8,000,000,000,000,000,000 people can't be wrong.

In case some of you are wondering about the bluntness of my previous entry then you can be assured that I was completely honest .... as inspired in my partially inebriated state by a paxil commercial.

For all of you out there who might happen upon this and who do not agree with me well .... then .... screw you and your self-righteous weakness.

I am sick of hearing about mental conditions which seem to impair people's abilities and judgement more and more each day ... each day ignoring the past ten thousand years of human history in which these issues were not a problem.

If ANXIETY is such an issue in everyday life then how come we don't hear much about this "disease" during the middle ages. Oh wait, I guess we do ... people were anxious about the fact that they might catch the PLAGUE .... not whether their wagon was the right fucking color!

If DEPRESSION was such an issue then why isn't it mentioned in class discussions about the Pax Romana ... because it wasn't a fucking issue! People had bad days and good days, just like everyone else!

The next thing you know we'll have drugs to treat the disease known as "JEALOUSY". Then we'll have the support groups like "JEALOUS Men Of America" and "JEALOUSY Anonymous" popping up.

Not every emotional response in an extreme is a disease. Not even if it occupies a majority of your consciousness. This negates the fallacy of the aforementioned Emotion Generation.

So, I leave you with this, another brief and jaded, perspective. For all of you out there who still don't agree with me then go cry yourself to sleep in a corner and stay out of the way of all of us who deal with our emotions in a mature way .... just like our 8,000,000,000,000,000,000 ancestors have.
