The Chinese government supports TCM because it's cheaper than healtchare.
We then realized that our relationship was too stressful (many factors there), not working, it was making me completely miserable to a point my body was just noping out of life.
Imagine then: should I have taking antibiotics, Panadol, long consultations with specialist ? Or a bit of BS fake juice ? The problem was not solvable by medicine and the government would have had to pay for it - in fact it did since I took all those medications that did nothing much. So not even for the placebo effect, sometimes you're sick because of life (stress is really a sickness inducer) and no amount of pharmaceuticals will truly help you.
