Premature Esnarkulation 48

Commercials have me cracking up this morning. Ill never understand medicine, I mean really the side effects they list are just crazy!

Take "this" for headache and your arms and legs may fall off, you may shoot yourself in the face, or your heart might explode.

Take "this" for stomach ache and your eyeballs could pop out, your teeth could shatter, or your brain could melt.

Take "this" for diarrhea and it could cause diarrhea.

Take "this" for depression and you will go from sad to suicidal after killing your loved ones.

Really i mean come on, humans lived for thousands of years before these "medicines" were ever made by man, yet people pop these pills like they are skittles.

The earth, mother nature herself provides everything we need i believe. the more man made medicine you take the more prone you are to getting sick i think. Ill never understand it. I get sick less than anyone in my house, but when it does happen some herbal tea, oils, or crushed herbs usually does the trick pretty quick, different herb depending on whats wrong, but these synthetic man made medicines always give me a good laugh, the wife prefers the man made crap, i give her a hard time and tell her she must like being sick LOL.

That is a really cool traditional i must say!!
 
A lot of it does do a lot of good, but a lot of it is WAY over-pre$cribed. Plus a lot of it exists only to counteract horrible stuff we shouldn't be putting in our bodies in the first place. Depressed and angry? Well look kids, if you're not a little depressed and angry sometimes, you're just not paying attention. I find it a little hard to believe that 10-20% of Americans (the number of folks on anti-depressants, depending on whom you ask) are actually clinically depressed.

The people I know who pop the most pills are the sickest, most miserable, unhappy people I know. That's not science, just my observation.

The Turkey Day GAW is still open for entries, BTW :)
 
The pills didn't do anything for my depression, plus it was a major taxation on my knife fund to buy them every month so I said forget it! I self medicate now, and I'm surviving. I won't say I am not depressed cause that would be a lie but I'm also not dead.

This post +1. And thanks for the reminder about the GAW, all this talk about sick people and Thanksgiving being mentioned just triggered a flood of memories for me. Hopefully I can do the story justice.

I agree with most of this except the "A lot of it does do a lot of good" For some serious illnesses and diseases this may be the case, but for things like headaches, stomach aches, the common cold... Well not so much, yes it may help people think they feel better for a little while, but most of these people have never used the right natural herbs for the same ailments and if they have they might see there are natural herbs that work better than any tylenol or nyquil.

Everyone is different and reacts to things differently. But I have tried those man made medicines, and i have been using natural herbs for over 10 years for everything from sore muscles to headaches to the common cold. I have experience with both man made and natural. Natural is the way to go for me no doubt. do some research and give it a go yourself. I cant say what works better for anyone else, but i CAN say what is healthier with less side effects.

Are you buying them or your parents??? Because id hate to be your parent with a list like that!!

I was working washing dishes in a local restaurant and delivering news papers at 12 years old, summer time i also worked in a plant nursery from sun up to sun down between working the restaurant and newspaper deliveries. from that point on i bought all my own clothes, shoes, deodorant, tooth paste and the things i just wanted for fun, so to me if you old enough to want all that your old enough to go get a J.O.B!!!

Yeah and antibiotics are just man made crap too :rolleyes:
 
Really psyop? did i ever say that? there are antibiotics that occur naturally like garlic. And there are synthetic ones as well. I said do some research, And i never said what would work better for you... just me. Please bud, at least read what i wrote before disagreeing.

Feel free to keep popping those pills though, like i said i CANT SAY WHAT WILL WORK BETTER FOR OTHERS, just me.
 
Why is everyone so confrontational to everything i post?

This started as i was making fun of the commercials, then i said what i believe, and what i think, not what you have to believe or think.......

Relax WW. No one's out to get you or be confrontational. :)

I agree there are a ton of great natural medicines. There would also be a lot fewer people on the planet today without some of the man-made ones.

That may or may not be a good thing, come to think of it... :eek: :D

The only pills I pop are pain killers. Because those might be man made but they are from the hand of God, I swear!

LMAO, I was in severe pain when a tooth broke off in my mouth under the skin, i was prescribed percocet and the pain was ridiculous so i tried to use them and half of a percocet 5mg made me feel like throwing up.

But a lot of those narcotic pain killers are opiates. Opium poppy is a natual growing plant, i have not, and will not ever use it. but lots of people grow forms of the poppy plant for medicinal uses.
 
LeeBower, that was hilarious!

best part;

"If i ever see you nosing it like this... Ill kill you" LMAO
