@Evenflowist314 He doesn't pretend to know everything when literally he doesn't? Exercise is great. However, for severe cases of mental illness, it's just not enough. Meds can be a last line of defense and if they help a person suffering, then should that person be ashamed of himself that he didn't do enough jogging during the week?

@MrMiltonblue1 I would argue that in many cases it is easer to prevent people from dying from a disease than to cure that disease. This leads to a higher life expectancy, but also to more sick people.
Take HIV/AIDS - not cureable, but also not as fatal as it was 20 years ago. If the rate of new infections per year stays the same, better medicin led to more sick people!
@HumanSayNo There is mote profit in treating illness than in curing it. Anyone with a financial stake in developing a drug wants it on the market, side-effects be damned.
Hell I've taken allergy pills for so long they've pretty much stopped working.
So I stopped taking them and the symptoms are a bit worse but I just deal with it.
Only medacine I take now is a rescue inhaler and only when required. I don't even take pain killers for headaches or cramps unless they get so severe they they prevent me from working.
Illnesses are real to the people who experience the painful symptoms. However they are over-diagnosed & mistreated with dangerous and ineffective medications. When diet and exercise don't work you need something else to help you. When you are suicidal everyday & can't get out of bed you can't exercise. I eat healthy & exercise but I am still ill because of a hypothyroidism. The human body can be knocked out of whack in many ways & that's where diet, exercise AND GOOD medicine can come in handy.
Psychotropic medications are particularly dangerous. I am educated to the fullest on this topic and have had personal experience. I do believe in balance and thing pharmaceuticals have there place. However psychotropic medications such as SSRI's should not be the first line of treatment doctors use. If doctors educated patients that 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise a day had just as strong an effect on depression than even the highest doses of anti depressants, this is better than pills

@sf10231016 I'll have to disagree with you about acid reflux. Acid reflux is not caused by acidic diet but rather the loosening/weakening of the esophageal sphincter that allows stomach acid content to flow back to the esophagus.
If untreated it can cause inflammation, ulcers, and scarring of the tissue in the esophagus. Or in extreme cases the acid content can flow into the lungs causes shortness of breath, asthma.
@sf10231016 Acid Reflux is a disease, def.

Is Bill Maher serious? I know he's joking when he IGNORANTLY states that Asthma and Autism are part of a new list of ailments that used to be rare but are now mainstream as a result of big pharmacy. Bill is certainly funny. You know, to be speaking so sternly without a medical degree.
@xABSOLUTEx I completely agree. The stuff he's saying can be dangerous. I've had to deal with a lot of patients with uncontrolled blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, etc. that are putting their lives at risk because they don't trust "BigPharma." Preventative medicine is wonderful and I preach it to patients, but there are some genetically predisposed or have other factors that make prevention difficult. Bill Maher should stick to his pseudo-politics and stay out of healthcare.
@kowtronik69skizmatic I think you should listen to Dr bruce Lipton You are missing one element of human being Mind.Body is not a structure but the proccess/dr D.Chopra/
see Anita Morjoni interview on youtube.You need to learn about genetics/Dr Bruce Lipton
@xABSOLUTEx Asthma is linked to high consumption of animal products, particularly dairy, and the eating of highly processed products. Less exercise and higher body fat leads to higher instances of asthma.
Depression and psychological disorders also link in with consumption of stimulants/animal foods/processed foods.
i never understood how a government can make it illegal for its adult citizens to consume something - like drugs in the usa - and people are actually ok with this... ...and you call yourself a land of the free...
I've never seen this one before in my life, but it fits almost exactly with things I've written about before. If we're going to have the health problem, then why not outlaw soda and compel people to eat spinach?
Isn't that typical of how THE STATE thinks? (Or doesn't...) They believe they can make more money by keeping people sick and dependent and dealing their 'legal' drugs to them, than keeping those same people as healthy and productive (and contributing) as possible, rather than dependent. That's why this governmental paradigm is obsolete. It takes over the role of mommy and daddy when we're just infants. The birth certificate pledges (indentures) us from cradle to grave. That must stop.
To be fair, a lot of the emergence of illness is due to a combination of change in environment and better diagnostics. Asthma is more common due to pollution and smog. ADHD is now more common because 50 years ago, people with ADHD were considered stupid. Mental problems are now being diagnosed where they were formerly written off as stupidity, and physical conditions are due to environment and consumption. There are misdiagnosed people, but not as many as you think.
I am very disappointed with Bill Maher. I am tired of his white humor. The elephant in the room is being ignored. If our President was not Black, he wouldn't even have a show on HBO. Stop making fun of the President of the US. Wake up and admitt to yourself that race has played such an important part in President Obama not being able to govern our country. There is too much hatred for people to ever accept our president.
Maher is just another leftist puppet who wants to blame all of societies problems on big corperations. Yes some medications are overperscribed and borderline dangerous to take. But I can tell you from experience you cant beat clinical depression just by eating a salad and going for a jog. To imply someone must be a lazy unhealthy slob because they have a psychiatric illness is just plain insulting. Therapy and medication have saved many peoples lives including my own.
@hackerwacker You may have had severe clinical depression, but one of the problems with the psychiatric industry is that it is very hard to tell clinical disorders from everyday suffering when the patients don't really know in which end of the spectrum they're in. What he said was that there is a study that shows exercise has the same statistical effectiveness than drugs to heal depression. For all you know most cases of depression (the statistical sample for the study) are not severe.
This man speaks the truth.The pharmaceutical industry and the drug doctors are promoting scams and marketing deadly and dangerous drugs that kill millions of people.Drugs create new problems because of serious side effects.They make you believe you must live with a bag of tablets suppressing symptoms.At the end of the day,your money is being taken away and you will never get better.Sounds like a scheme to me.Can you imagine Actos causes bladder cancer and heart attacks? This is a new lawsuit.
America get off your FAT ASS and jog every once in a while. HELL just go to your neighborhood park and walk for a little while. And get your FAT ASS kids to go with you. Do this about 3 times a week,...and you wont need all those DAMN pills and Diabetes Medicine for you or your kids.
The psychiatry industry is a sham. These pills are used to (a) make profits and (b) keep the people doped out and under control. How come North Americans have the world's highest rates of so-called mental illnesses when they also have the highest standards of living? How come people in poverty-stricken, violence-torn countries like Somalia, Pakistan, Congo (etc.) have low rates of mental illness? It is cause North Americans have money to buy the crap while the poor people don't.
@steviesbackbitch People in third world countries do have mental health issues. Probably more so than in developed countries, due to malnutrition, drugs, war and other factors. They don't have a health care system that is equipped to deal with mental health. Drug (legal and illegal) and alcohol abuse are the main reasons why we have so many mental health problems in the developed world. Most people with mental health issues are dual diagnosis cases nowadays.
@steviesbackbitch First part well said. However 'How come people in poverty-stricken, violence-torn countries like Somalia, Pakistan, Congo (etc.) have low rates of mental illness?' is not very accurate. It is because, I don't know...things like famine are a far bigger problem. Mental issues very much go under the radar when you can't even get clean water.
@steviesbackbitch 1. Statistics cannot be compared as each country defines illness differently and governments cannot be trusted. 2. The USA is better than most of the rest of the world. However the USA is screwed. But Europe has worst unemployment.
@steviesbackbitch This is one of the most ignorant comments I've seen in a long time. Speaking as someone who is alive because of the "sham" you refer to, your comment, if taken seriously, has the potential to kill someone. Well done.
@steviesbackbitch It's true that psychiatric companies push for doctors to sell their specific brand of drug to help mental illnesses, but the effect it has on the people who need it is astonishing. By your logic we should just stop all supplies of pills to the mentally ill because it's a sham? Don't be silly.
Bill got this one right, 100%...no money in healthy people, just chronically ill ones, with all the modern day problems mainly caused by lack of exercise, decent food, and the false belief that government can solve every problem, starting with pills that can undo what bad diet, smoking, excessive drinking, and no exercise did to you, in the first place
After being prescribed medications that caused more illness than ever, then working closely with persons diagnosed with illnesses such as schizophrenia, I question if they were/ are, not more attuned than the average "normal" persons.

because exercise brought me out of depression it has taken the place in my heart most people reserve for religion, i am now becoming a personal trainer and plan on spreading the word of my god....exercise....because it helped me when the fake god didn't
If you want to take your new religion to a new level have a look at Dr. Terry Wahls new video on youtube Minding Your Mitochondria. Even though it relates to her reversing her MS with diet it is a great example with what is really at the heart of so many health problems today, which so many are preventable and reversible.
I went on antidepressants in august '09. In april '10 I started using an elliptical machine in the gym for about 45 minutes per day about 5 days per week. I went off the medication a month later.
People who claim exercise & healthy eating don't help are the people who don't want to exercise & don't want to eat healthy... it would take up too much of their time... you know, the time they spend on the couch, pounding a can of sugar water, eating a half gallon of ice cream, or curling a twinkie or nutty bar into their pie hole while watching jersey shore or some other FAKE reality show. (Psychiatrists aren't doctors, they're BigPharma whores who prescribe drugs so they can get their cut.)
Ugh, this is nonsense. I'm not saying that people aren't using too much drugs
but it's disappointing to see a guy like Mahr promote this anti evidence based medicine crap. Also, every decent doctor will recommend good diet and exercise.
Who do you think runs Congress? Big Pharma. It's the big pharmaceutical companies that make all the big decisions. Big Pharma paves your roads. Big Pharma delivers your mail. Who do you think teaches your kids how to read? Teachers? Try again: Big Pharma. Big Pharma took us to war in Vietnam, synthesized crack, and killed Kennedy. Big Pharma came from outer space, invented Ben Franklin, started a little company called the Internet, and polluted the ocean with high-fructose corn syrup.
@mikefiftynine Its from a movie called Half Baked you know the scene with Dave Chappell and Bob Saget, Please do some research about the great uses of cannabis you simple minded little boy. The only thing in cannabis that gets you high is THC and best part of the plant is called the cannanbinoids. I bet you have no problem taking XANAX just because you feel a little uneasy in social situations.
@mikefiftynine haha. Marijuana isn't deadly. Being a fucken idiot is. The reality is that marijuna will show up in blood tests up to 3 months after ingesting it. So most of the dudes who are dead and have it show up in their tox screen didn't actually die from it.
@Foreignsik you just keep believing that pothead, as the bodies in the morgue stack up and you jerk off to this idiot bill maher . your mass media hero
you're a coroner right? nah . just some clown sitting on youtube arguing that someone has a right to blow their mind with drugs .. maher is a dick .. he uses drugs .. MJ . he's a hollywood hypocrite
@mikefiftynine I don't watch American TV. I live in the Netherlands. I'm actually studying forensic science right now and I can tell you that I haven't seen a single death related to marijuna. I suggest watching The Union for more information.
I thought this was great but I was lost on what he meant about spinach being able to kill you. Was that just a jab at how everything can be bad for you these days, or is too much of it really bad for you? lol
@ISeenACar87 at one time in the past Spinach was banned because of E.colli bacteria contamination. I hope that helps explain the joke. Because farmers are allowed to use 'brown' and 'gray' water now, we will have to deal these occasional outbreaks and a few dozen young and elderly dying because of it. Just seems to be the way of the future because of water shortages.
@ISeenACar87 Bill has a BA in history and English and he calls these people lunatics >>911 WTC;1,519 verified architectural and engineering professionals signed the petition demanding of Congress
really take a hard look at whos serving your best interests... bc FDA isnt it, lots of documentary on whos interests they really have... bc most of those working for FDA worked for the companies they are protecting you from... they are protecting their old bosses not the public. go find out about cheney and the rest.
food inc, foodmatters, etc etc profit and keeping you in the dark & sick.
YA they said ahh smokings good for you :), lots of pills taken off the market for side affects: death etc
@markjv Yeah, I think the craziest part is the fact that the FDA uses the data from the corporations instead of doing its own research. I can't remember which senator it was but he was grilling the FDA good about that fact.
He does have a point. Drugs are overprescribed. However, exercise isn't always an option for people who are truly clinically depressed. Even if it helps, part of depression is that it takes away your motivation to do anything. When just getting out of bed or remembering to shower every few days is an accomplishment, getting regular exercise is out of the question.
I somehow managed to become clinically depressed with a healthy diet and walking 6 miles a day. Meds can be necessary sometimes
@AvengerOfEmo depression is a symptom of something else. in my case pcos, maybe not the "right foods" if going by the food pyramid that will make some ppl fat ( met b-ers). a bit of exercise can help depression and eating the right foods for you. if i eat and i do eat the food pyramid diet that keeps me fat. over exercising will not fix things as for me fatness is hormonal not caloric. paxil etc are more harmful than good, if i wasnt so "anti pill" id probably still be on such things...
@AvengerOfEmo there are several factors which can affect things not just food and exercise. maybe too much exercise or at the wrong times. part of my problem is light pollution while i sleep. maybe you have too much light in your bedrm, that includes clock radios and fire/smoke detector lights.
watch some docus maybe youll think differently. gi diets metabolisum miracle diet etc etc.
medITATION etc can help.
really try to figure out WHY you feel a certain way. pills do more harm than good.
Why do people have to add their pathetic 2 cents w/ these comments. Besides agreeing w/ him because he's 110% correct, you look very stupid. Starting faceless arguments, debates, etc. Get a life. Damn! LOL
No it can't, not for everyone, it CAN help but that's about it. Also have you any idea what depression is? The whole getting off your arse is really really hard for people who have a serious depression. You are not going to go jogging when you think life is completely fucked up and you want to die. If you are a normal person with a normal depression(90% of humans get depressed at least once) this is different but there is a lot of different people and forms of depression out there.
@Shermingtan Exercise and eating right, will cure the vast majority of depression, not all but the vast majority. Believe me if it wasnt for healthy exercise and eating right most guys in the U.S infantry will be serious depresed after seeing the horrors of war.
I haven't seen any of these Big Pharma ads everyone is talking about. Perhaps I'm too busy swimming, biking, hiking, and running trails where BigPharma doesn't own any advertising space.
I haven't seen what a Pill even looks like. Perhaps I'm too busy enjoying my health to understand what this society has become.
Everything is as it should be. Those with dependent / consumer genetics are being fed by those with independent / producer genetics. Me - I live far away from both, in Healthville
His words about depression at the end are so true. I was on anti depressants until I started exercising and eating well. Now I feel great! The fact that the doctors don't even ask you about your lifestyle when they prescribe you drugs is a crime. They just tell you you have low seratonin levels and these pills will sort that out. Wankers.
@smithy2306 I'm sorry, but if you think doctors should have to tell people to exercise and eat well then you are an asshat. There's a certain level of common sense that you should have to have before they spend time on you. And if you're suggesting all depression can be cured by exercise then times the asshat remark by 2 and go join tom cruise in his campaign of excruciating stupidity.Carry on spitting on the people who save lives, I'm sure it makes you feel superior.
@Bumblybee256 sorry but I am going on my experience and other people I know who have had the same experience. I agree some people need serious help yes, but some don't. Spitting on people who save lives? im talking about GPs you idiot who dish out presciptions in a 2 minute consultation for 50 quid. Joke.
@smithy2306 and what is your experience in pharmacology? I happen to know quite a few GPs and I know they are up to their ears in idiots who go to them when they don't really need to and pester them until they give them a prescription. Believe it or not GPs would prefer not to have the extra workload of fat idiots whining at them, they do not get paid per patient.

If untreated it can cause inflammation, ulcers, and scarring of the tissue in the esophagus. Or in extreme cases the acid content can flow into the lungs causes shortness of breath, asthma.

Is Bill Maher serious? I know he's joking when he IGNORANTLY states that Asthma and Autism are part of a new list of ailments that used to be rare but are now mainstream as a result of big pharmacy. Bill is certainly funny. You know, to be speaking so sternly without a medical degree.
xABSOLUTEx 2 months ago 2
@xABSOLUTEx I completely agree. The stuff he's saying can be dangerous. I've had to deal with a lot of patients with uncontrolled blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, etc. that are putting their lives at risk because they don't trust "BigPharma." Preventative medicine is wonderful and I preach it to patients, but there are some genetically predisposed or have other factors that make prevention difficult. Bill Maher should stick to his pseudo-politics and stay out of healthcare.

@xABSOLUTEx Asthma is linked to high consumption of animal products, particularly dairy, and the eating of highly processed products. Less exercise and higher body fat leads to higher instances of asthma.
Depression and psychological disorders also link in with consumption of stimulants/animal foods/processed foods.

Isn't that typical of how THE STATE thinks? (Or doesn't...) They believe they can make more money by keeping people sick and dependent and dealing their 'legal' drugs to them, than keeping those same people as healthy and productive (and contributing) as possible, rather than dependent. That's why this governmental paradigm is obsolete. It takes over the role of mommy and daddy when we're just infants. The birth certificate pledges (indentures) us from cradle to grave. That must stop.
AceOfHeart2012 3 months ago
To be fair, a lot of the emergence of illness is due to a combination of change in environment and better diagnostics. Asthma is more common due to pollution and smog. ADHD is now more common because 50 years ago, people with ADHD were considered stupid. Mental problems are now being diagnosed where they were formerly written off as stupidity, and physical conditions are due to environment and consumption. There are misdiagnosed people, but not as many as you think.

Maher is just another leftist puppet who wants to blame all of societies problems on big corperations. Yes some medications are overperscribed and borderline dangerous to take. But I can tell you from experience you cant beat clinical depression just by eating a salad and going for a jog. To imply someone must be a lazy unhealthy slob because they have a psychiatric illness is just plain insulting. Therapy and medication have saved many peoples lives including my own.

@hackerwacker You may have had severe clinical depression, but one of the problems with the psychiatric industry is that it is very hard to tell clinical disorders from everyday suffering when the patients don't really know in which end of the spectrum they're in. What he said was that there is a study that shows exercise has the same statistical effectiveness than drugs to heal depression. For all you know most cases of depression (the statistical sample for the study) are not severe.

How come people in poverty-stricken, violence-torn countries like Somalia, Pakistan, Congo (etc.) have low rates of mental illness? It is cause North Americans have money to buy the crap while the poor people don't.

@steviesbackbitch People in third world countries do have mental health issues. Probably more so than in developed countries, due to malnutrition, drugs, war and other factors. They don't have a health care system that is equipped to deal with mental health. Drug (legal and illegal) and alcohol abuse are the main reasons why we have so many mental health problems in the developed world. Most people with mental health issues are dual diagnosis cases nowadays.

@steviesbackbitch First part well said. However 'How come people in poverty-stricken, violence-torn countries like Somalia, Pakistan, Congo (etc.) have low rates of mental illness?' is not very accurate.

He does have a point. Drugs are overprescribed. However, exercise isn't always an option for people who are truly clinically depressed. Even if it helps, part of depression is that it takes away your motivation to do anything. When just getting out of bed or remembering to shower every few days is an accomplishment, getting regular exercise is out of the question.
I somehow managed to become clinically depressed with a healthy diet and walking 6 miles a day. Meds can be necessary sometimes
