These efforts are putting heavy accent on the “quality of life” which
stimulates the development of “medicine of desires” and “pharmacological
dependencies/medicalmentalochondry”, offering a myth of “blind well-being
adorations” and a cult of eternal youth. Following those unrealistic
ideals, its hypochondriac-obsessive followers are becoming “sick of aspirational
prosperity” and subordinated by the “vital dynamisms” which
have been proposed by economical propaganda and by the management
of pharmaceuticals industries, unable to recognize the unrealistic offers
from health hypertrophy (that is, medical omnipotence), which is not satisfied
anymore with exclusively necessary parameters of health (prevention/
therapy/rehabilitation), but tends towards the utopia of complete psychophysical
well-being.
Through those tendencies of actualization, important anthropological,
spiritual and moral values are often forgotten and neglected.
