The Modern Day Plagues - Stress, Depression, and Anxiety
Just like the Black Plague of the Middle Ages, the
Modern Day Plagues affect people of all all ages and
in all walks of life. Our fast paced society is a breeding
ground for stress, depression and anxiety!
Turn on the Tv and you will be bombarded with
commercials for pills to stop depression, pills to help
relieve your shyness,and drinks “to pep” you up so
you can work faster and longer. The modern day
remedy is “take a magic bullet” and the world will
be all right.
If this is such great stuff, why are we having kids
shooting up their schools, and workers shooting up
the work place? How many crimes are contributed to
depression? A mother kills her children, or someone
shoots their ex-lover because they were depressed.
Sure drugs have a place: however its society abuse
of the drugs that causes the problem. We have come
to expect to be handed a “magic bullet” and things will
be all right. The problem is things aren’t all right. The
magic bullets aren’t working against the
Modern Day Plagues.
