Reply #7: "correct in...that Psychiatry is not a science."?????

I agree to the extent that children are over-medicated, but let me tell you there are real people (yes, even democrats) out there who need medication to live life somewhat normally.

There are people who are bi-polar, have post traumatic stress disorder, major depression, not to mention schizophrenia who need medication and/or counseling to survive.

The son of a woman I know who is bi-polar tried to choke her and stuff her into a suitcase to get rid of her. Come on, you can't think this person doesn't need some kind of psychological help.

Its obvious that research has been done for decades about chemical imbalances in the brain. It is a science and those people like Tom Cruise who don't believe so are out of touch with reality.

Personally, I would be dead if it weren't for the strength I had to get the help I needed. I have no qualms about the fact that I have been seeing a psychiatrist and counselor for almost two years. People who have been around me have told me they see the difference therapy has made.

And, Tom Cruise is a nut who's lost his ever-lovin mind.
