You thought they were concerned with your health?
Many psychotropic drugs have harsh side effects. If you ever dealt with anyone in full blown mania you wouldn’t hesitate to try anything. One big problem with bipolar patients is they stop taking the meds. This is in part due to side effects and simply mania is a more enjoyable state, for them.
It’s a rather touching story of a in-the-closet lesbian who can’t face her homosexual self but finds the courage to do so by taking Abilify. “What? All those years of bipolar this and bipolar that and all it was was going down the path that I was afraid to follow? Oh, my… I’m gay and thanks to Abilify I got a lesbian partner that I love and cherish for the rest of my life! THANK YOU ABILIFY!”

#8 – It’s not legal for your doctor to “sell” you on a certain drug. His job is to make a diagnosis and prescribe appropriately. But, if you ask your doctor about the drug, then the rules change. Yeah, pretty dirty, I know.
Other side effects may include:
Seizures, Blindness, verbal diarrhea, reduced respiration, uncontrolled, pink-eye, retardation, rectal vomiting, headache, anal leakage and dry mouth. But most were rated mild to moderate.

What’s mild to moderate Death?
“We’re sorry, this video is no longer available.”
I’m getting really sick of YouTube this last week. It seems like 80% of linked videos are “no longer available”.
People need to stop using them and use one of the more reliable clones out there. Google are running YouTube into the ground, just like they did with Google Video.
The “disease”: mood swings, racing thoughts, usually high energy, irritability.
The “cure”: relax, slow your thinking, get physically idle, and feel good about it.
Umm, can’t you just smoke a joint, and get the same results without fear of: high fever, stiff muscles, involuntary permanent muscle movements, drug-induced diabetes, faintness, dizzy spells, impaired judgement and motor skills, trouble swallowing, coma, stroke, or death?
Sure, you might have confusion from the high, and high blood sugar because of the munchies; but – given the alternatives above?
14. Oh no, dont go there, you’re not allowed to use common sense.
Why is the ‘war on drugs’ only on illegal drugs? Shouldn’t it be against these corporations trying to push drugs on us for everything. They just cure the symptoms, and do nothing to treat the entire organism. You can treat all the symptoms you want, but until you realize that the rest of the organism is related to the problem, you will not find the ‘cure.’
Oriental medicine treats the whole organism, not just the symptoms, and has been practiced for thousands of years.

Hence, Tai Chi. Before the modern era, a village doctor only got paid if his patients were well. If they got sick, the payments stop coming.
Interesting idea that . . .
And I guarantee you, that Tai Chi is more fun than “mild to moderate death.”
If these commercials were fully truthful, they would say:
The MAJOR possible side effects are:
– headache
– dry mouth
-diarhea
Other noted side effects include (but we would rather not mention them):
– Head exploding like a hand grenade
– Testicles swelling up to the size of watermelons, turning green and falling off.
– Homicidal rage directed against immediate loved ones
– Urge to insert spiny things in rectum
– Inability to walk forwards, only backwards.
– Belief that Republicans care about people at all.

I thought mood swings, racing thoughts, high energy, irritability was all part of being a human being!
I dated a girl with “bipolar disorder”. She was on medication,and the medication made her nutty. She was a really wonderful person who really just needed a stable relationship and to get away from her parents who were divorcing and were at each other all the time.
