Thinking vs Feeling or Medicine

"As for Diseases of the Mind, against them Philosophy is provided of Remedies; being, in that respect, justly accounted the Medicine of the Mind."
~ Epicurus

What prompted this is my reading "Plato, not Prozac" by Marinoff.

It is about learning to think as a means to avoid and/or solve your everyday problems.

Time tested wisdom "rather than offering superficial New Age or pathology-oriented pseudo-medical approaches".

What a concept.
