You will have a lot of believers and get a lot of sympathy. Where did I say anything about alcohol? Medications are to be used when appropriate. The analagy is precisely right on. There is no logic to change their mind. Nope. The analogy sucks. Absolutely pitiful. How can ANY intelligent person, even without training fall for that, except to use as a failure excuse.

The promo doesn't even mention the fact that Canada has pulled Adderall due to instances of sudden death. http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/ahc-asc/media...2005_92_e.html AFAIK, Canada reversed it's 02/05 ban of Adderall XR in 8/05. I don't suppose the reversal brought those dead kids back to life? Canada has a history of pandering to pharmaceutical interests; a temporary ban on dangerous drugs is just PR to quiet down public outcry. Think Vioxx. http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/ahc-asc/media...2005_92_e.html Nancy Unique, like everyone else |

I know it! (And I have a psych degree and have worked as a behavioural therapist with autistic children, and I take medication for my ADHD.) Well, good, so you keep yourself drugged. So you work with people who charge money to play games. After getting a degree and finding out the nonsense that Psychologists spout (no stats to back them up), the dishonesty and typically the general ignorance, I decided to go into Physics (not much opportunity except in teaching) and then changed to Engineering. Many (still a small percetage) M.D.s are less than honest and cause as much damage as help, but MOST Psychologists and Psychiatrists do mostly harm. They usually don't do it on purpose or with knowledge. They just have a self agrandizing group of coherts. -Janna -- Respite Worker, Calgary, Alberta Officially diagnosed ADHD February 11, 2005 "Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal." - Albert Camus "I want to remake the world; anything less is not worth the trouble." - Karen Cushman http://comautworld.blogspot.com |
