Great paragraph. NONE of us is broken, to begin with. The body, the psyche are communicating distress, which means, to this writer, that we are doing, thinking, eat, choosing things that are not serving us. That's called feedback. Feedback, like pain from a broken arm,is just feedback. The body, the brain are in their own unique ways screaming HEY BUDDY what you're doing isn't working for you! That's how you and I are wired. To my mind, that's not broken. That is precisely how it looks when it's working. But that takes work, deep work, self assessment, therapy, exercise, better work, developing better habits, giving up smoking and alcohol, blah blah. Kindly, that to me is whats broken, that we might prefer a pill to the scientifically proven different alternatives that might lead to a different life.
