We all try to seek ballance in our lives. Life can be difficult if thats what you are implying, that does not mean that the brain (when working properly) does not have the capability to deal with an extrordinary amount of insult.
I agree with much of what you say. But remember that these drugs showed their benefit first, and then the theory was implemented to try and explain the workings.Weather or not a sick patient is willing to accept improvement in the absence of a perfect and complete understanding is their choice alone.
So is the theory air-tight ? Of course not. It really comes down to a personal choice. If a particulat drug helps me, then I have to carefully weight the known with the unknown.
