Ah your question makes me think of a conversation I have had many times over with a friend of mine who is a Homeopath.

We have been pondering whether it is the Drug that causes the Mental Disorder, or if the Mental Disorder is truly treatable with the Drug.

It's kind of like the whole Deep Tissue Massage vs. Bone Crunching, one argues that irritation to the tissue causes the bones to fall out of alignment, the other claims the bones pop out and cause the tissue and muscle irritation.

Which is right? Perhaps both diagnoses are right dependant on the person being treated, as after all we are individuals yeah?

Ooooooo ranty ranty Mistress!
