My dad was a pill-o-phile. He would take any medicine from any pill bottle if he had any ache or pain.
A conversation between my parents...
Mom: "What is wrong with you?"
Dad: "I have a tickle in my throat that is making me cough"
Mom: "No, what is WRONG with you? These are my prescription menopause pills!"
Everything a person experiences is filtered through the perceptions of the mind. Thus the prophylactic joy of the placebo.
