Are all the chemicals and medicine making us crazy

[Demon_Skeith]

the unknown chemicals found in our food, products and whatever else on top of all the medicine people take (I work at a pharmacy and what some people take is insane.) and I have to wonder if that starts to affect us in bad ways. Specially the babies of the future which the chemicals and meds may affect them while still in the womb.


Seems like these days, a lot of crazy people are starting to surface.

Drugs like bath salts are certainly making people crazy. I read on a blog that a person who ate bath salts hit someone with a shovel for no reason, and another Bath Salts person who was naked ate someone face off in the middle of the street.

Ok man, here what I think, and read well:
The medicine always, since that their appears, make secondary effects. Seriously, the doctor tell you to take a medicine (And a medicine is a mix of  different chemicals), so, if you take them EXACTLY WHAT DOCTOR SAYS HOW TO TAKE IT AND HOW MUCH, you will not be feel  on crack.
Now are some doctors that make everything to make you feel bad, to make you came to him again, and again, and finally cure you (Sure, when his wallet is full of you)

As I stated in my first post and I work at a pharmacy and have witness how much medicine a single person takes. Even a doctor can not predict what can happen if a person takes so many meds in one day.

Omg... just what... similar to hallucination?

Many people taking high meds like that are older and probably won't have many kids. Also if they are prescribing high level drugs people are usually pretty careful, I doubt that many overdose. Also with strong meds they have a set amount and people are pretty strict with that.

I would have some background knowledge, my mom takes high meds and my sister is an actual pharmacist.

I feel sorry for your sister.

I think we're seeing more people with psychological issues now because there are more people now than ever. (The current population just hit 7 Billion people in 2011) so naturally that is also going to increase the chance of those with psychological issues to occur.  (Since some psychological issues are determined by genetic predispositions. )
Plus I would imagine that some psychological issues stems from poor parenting. (Parents that neglect their children probably are going to have children with higher rates of psychological issues.) Since it seems like now more than ever people are becoming parents who really shouldn't be. They don't have what it takes to be parents and have no business raising a child. (Just because you can have a child does not mean you will be a good parent. It merely means you can utilize a biologic function to create offspring, no knowledge of parenting is ever gained/imparted in this process.)



As for drugs... It is possible that certain drugs taken in the past (typically during pregnancy, but I'm not going to rule out at other times either) may have affected current generations (and drugs taken now will affect future ones) but it's impossible to tell what effects drugs will have long term on a multi-generation timeline. (Most drugs we have now haven't been out that long so we really don't have enough data to tell what effects, if any, they'll have over that long a time period. And even drugs we have had for a long time we've been constantly altering and refining to reduce negative risks like interactions with other drugs and making them safer for use. So even those ones we may have no idea what they'll do... though we hope any long terms effects they may have will be less severe because of it. Though also worth mentioning that the human body is fairly good at cleansing itself of some levels of chemicals and toxins, so many drugs will get filtered out by the body and thus shouldn't have generational effects since they wouldn't be altering DNA.)


Though of course if people take illegal drugs like those bath salts... Yes, those can produce very powerful psychotic breakdowns in anyone. But those are isolated cases and shouldn't be passed along throughout generations. (Since in some cases with those drugs, users end up getting killed while on them. So there is little to no chance of passing any inherited issues along then.)

May be it's very difficult to get pure organic food now.
Everything contains chemicals for something or the other.
Even we are forced to use them...because of the insects and such......assuming that we have decided to grow stuff by ourselves.

The only thing that you can do is grow your own and even then you need to get the seeds from the right place.
