Do Medication Save Lives?

i think that the common thread here is that we believe tha all experiences of pain, physical or emotional, need to be immediately dulled with powerful drugs. And again, as you say, these drugs can also save lives, but thei're being used in radically irresponsible ways. It's only when it's in combination with cogna behavioral therapy, or other therapeutic, a skill based techniques, that use of medications can be helpful for some one suffering from anxiety.
