The question is not to get out of dependencies of chemical addiction in the first place. What is behind this - and this is mostly unconscious - are a number of dependencies which are not questioned at all. First of all: dependency from authority; as a result lack of self responsibility; as a result: lack of initiative and motivation; as a result: not asking and searching for the source of one's problems instead of this blindly trusting a corrupt and rotten health system which is stuck in a materialistic world view, etc. and so treating disease with chemicals, not healing but making people addicted. People are expecting to get rid of their symptoms in an instant way! These suffering blind people receive what they want from other blind people called medical doctors, keeping patients in their blindness. Then the medication is causing more problems and symptoms, which again are treated with chemicals; until maybe one day somebody opens one's eyes and starts to quest this kind of 'help'. This might be the first step out of dependency and addiction and also the first step to a real healing...
