He could not live without his many pills every day. One allowed him to sleep, another quelled his anxiety, a third lifted his depression, others liberated or inhibited his bodily functions, lowered his cholesterol, regulated his heartbeat, soothed his aches, sharpened his vision, slowed his cognitive decline, boosted his testosterone, lowered his blood pressure, increased his immunity, banished unwelcome thoughts, made him feel normal. They interacted to grant him life - so he had been instructed by those selling them, and so he faithfully accepted, a devout disciple of pharmatheology.
