In this article, we intend to address the notion of medicalization in society as well as the everyday existence as the speech of "technicity" of life. Contemporaneity, subscribed to an absolute belief in technical discourse, seems to be in a state of anesthesia with the findings of substances that assure solutions to almost all our problems. The pharmacologic arsenal, provided by the pharmaceutical industry, keeps promising personal and social wellness. We believe this "techniclike" discourse about life is presented as a mythic-magic one, where apprehension of reality is attained by a narration whose efficiency is determined by a mysterious power.
