Ran: People are getting a pill, or they're getting a diagnosis other than what we're tryingo do to spread this word about the charade. He says illness is any kind of sense of unease and that's why it's illit it's a feeling. Ran: Unless we change the definition of illness, don't go to medical doctor to deal with these problems. They just drug you or try to cajole you into some sort of what's called healthy living. It really isn't about healthy living,. It's really about you shutting up about your problems and looking you're happy.
