Now looking at what you wrote here,I see that you are open to {other ideas}. And I have other ideas. These ideas have been revealed to me. The revelation shows me what the mind is, what one can do about that mind, and how one could have a new mind so that all things become new. That would mean that old things would pass away, even the old mind that could have been harmed by mind-altering drugs. And the revelation shows that healing can be given to the one with an injured mind. This healing comes from a Jewish perspective and there is a prohibition posted to me by Mr Hsiung that prevents me from posting what could give you a new mind and with the stripes of a Sun, you could be healed. This Sun brings a healing liht, the light of the world that is a light to your path. This light will dispel the darkness and reveal to you the origin of the light. Then you could be made free, free from depression, free from axiety, free from addiction, free from death. This light will illuminate your understanding.
Here is a video that I think could illuiminate your mind in some respects to help you make a more informed decision as to seek mind-altering drugs to stop any depression/anxiety that you may have. This video is by a doctor that explains aspects of psychotropic drugs and you could make up your own mind as to if you want to continue to go to your doctor for another drug and another and another. When one does that, chances are (redacted by respondent).
