Reiki - and depression.

Just returned from an early morning therapy session - it never ceases to amaze me just how powerful reiki can be. To see someones long term depression lifting after three/four sessions is truly humbling.
Talking about depression, I seem to be getting more and more clients who have been prescribed anti-depression drugs in the form of SSRI's. Are doctors getting too quick to dole out these dangerous drugs as though they were doling out sweets?
Read the accompanying leaflet! SSRI'S can cause anxiety, panic attacks and if youi're really unlucky suicidal thoughts. And, by the way, these type of drugs deplete your body of B vitamins. Guess which vitamins you need to stop the brain chemicals unbalancing and causing depression - you guessed vitamin Bs. So when you come to the end of the prescribed time you will find it hard to give up, you will feel 'blue' so the doctor will say "we'll just keep you on SSRI'S a while longer." Result; the drug companies have another long term SSRI junkie and their profits go up.
Just so you know. I have total respect for my doctors and believe they always do their best for me and their other patients - I just think the whole medical proffession is being lied to and misled by profit motivated drugs companies. For example, why have the British and American governments stock-piled millions of pounds worth of anti bird-flu jabs? Because the drug companies said they had to and that they would be failing the electorate if they weren't ready for the epidemic.
1. Where is the epidemic? and did you know that the drug companies have now admitted that the stock-piled jabs are 'probably useless' anyway because, the virus still hasn't crossed over to humans and when it does only then will they know how to build the anti-dote. Scandalous really isn't it? 2. These drugs will have a shelf life and then the governing medical bodies will be convincing us that they have to re-stock: yet more profit for the drugs barons.
Why are old people given a flu-jab at the start of winter? If flu comes it will be a different strain to the one innoculated for because it always mutates. A waste of time but good for generating profit.
Did you know that in Germany the most prescribed item to cope with mild depression is not a drug but the very powerful herb St John's Wort.
PS Nature's Sunshine have the most potent blend of this herb.
