The trouble with pills is, they numb everything, not just the bad bits. For some people, this allows them to tone things down to a more manageable level, and then sort things out.
The goal shouldn't normally be to stay in that place though, but to really work with yourself and be able to get back off the meds at some point.
And I agree, they're way too freely subscribed these days, just as doctors are way too "trigger happy" about diagnosing so-called mental disorders.
