We are not enamored of any use of prescription drugs as there is always a downside and many times a serious consequence that will negate the value altogether. That said, there are many individuals in a precarious state of mental imbalance that can benefit from having a kind of chemical manipulation to offset aberrant thinking or emotional extremes that are intolerable or dangerous, through invoking violent behavior, for example, or such extremes of torment people will turn to suicide. So there is a time and place for any kind of human-level adjunct if it helps survival or helps to moderate symptoms to some degree to make life less horrible. That is the case here. There will be some individuals who will have the intended improvement in moderating extremes in mood state, whether positive or negative in emotion and level of anxiety. Those classified as bipolar, who cannot control their emotions, may find it a godsend. It is never a final answer. What is truly needed is deep healing and repair to bring the mind back into alignment.
