By "medicalizing" wellness with endless surveys, modules, and screenings, institutions are trying to solve the issue using the very system that caused it, which only adds to physicians' burdens.

At some level this profession just does not make sense to itself, its own ideology out of whack with the plain facts of its own existence. There are those who ar...| A Myth in Creation
