Come of it I see so many kids whose life are hopelessly and irreversibly ruined. All drugs increase or cause psychotic breakdowns. Pedophiles cause less damage than the pushers and God knows what they deserve. Drugs are just bloody dangerous and to pretend other wise is crass and wrong. In my career I have seen a vast change in the kids that go down with Schizophrenia. Drugs make ever aspect much worse. You'd talk differently if you saw the results. As liberal a bunch as shrinks are I know of none that would legalize or encourage drugs. Guess why? As for the poor sod in the Philippines. I am sorry for him but I admire the Philippines guts Sorry to be harsh but I agree with Thirkers again Michael Dr Michael Benjamin, Community Psychiatrist ------------------------------- myRay: On-line Self-Help CBT http://www.myRay.com ------------------------------ Mental Health: http//www.MyDoctorExplains.com -------------------------------- Auditing || Quality Control http://www.MyDoctorExplains.com/alamo/ -------------------------------- Blog: http://www.DrMichaelBenjamin.com
