People take their own chosen medicine

Ever wonder why there are so many different kind of medicine made even though they serve the same purpose? Why does that group of people take one brand and the other take a different one?

All of this comes down to people's preference. People are driven so much by their own choices and desires. Often this leads to people having differences and polar opposite behaviours. Some people, though suffering from the same illness, choose a medicine that they think is the best there is. While others may disagree, he won't care because what he thinks is right is right.

This is affected by people's recognition of said medicine. They have heard of it somewhere, hence they have a certain connection with it. This makes it more probable for him to choose the medicine over thousand others. Also, they just don't pick because they have heard of it, surely the medicine has some sort of ability to heal the kind of illness they have.

Now, let's consider this. Let's say now the illness is people's problem. There are so many ways to help said person, but how do we know if it indeed is the treatment he needed? People deal with their problems in their own way. Often the best way that we know may not be his. I have seen a lot of people suffer because they are not able to heal their emotional damage. Even when we tried to help, it is of no use. Just like a doctor that is willing to help, he still needs the patient to come to him and ask for help. He is already a call away, why not just call out to him? Why don't you let him heal you? If your pride is getting in the way, then that is a stupid decision. But then, who am I to judge and deem you stupid? I am just a 'patient' like you.
