Allopathia

ORIGINAL LINK
One of the great incongruities of our time is the obsession with sickness, on the one hand – and the lack of interest, on the other hand, in doing what it takes to be healthy. And thereby avoid most sicknesses. This phenomenon could be called allopathia – a combination of allopathic (as in mainstream medicine, that focuses on symptoms – and suppression of them – rather than on causes and changing one’s habits to correct them) and pathological; i.e., compulsive/obsessive.
