That sense of peace and wellbeing could well be due to the drugs that you're taking.
the non-prescribed variety only lead you down the road to anxiety be like me (now) and say no.
if you've read the contra-indications on some of those medications! would you still take?
I take cinder-water for the stomach ache and a cold compress for a headache anything else and I grin and bear it swear a lot and get over it unless it's serious and then I cry.
