Do any folks with no addiction really understand this problem? Alcohol, other drugs, even gambling, sex and MANY obsessions count here.

We, the afflicted, are left with our addictions or those silly meetings and what sort of choice is that?

What is the underlying problem? Take the views of the world's top thinkers on these problems: psychiatrists, real doctors and fringe thinkers like self sanctified psychologists. Toss in these problems. Ask them to be honest, a problem considering their training of course.

So what do you get? Imagine asking this sort of thing of a bright 12 year old, a sturdy hound or your wall. This IS the problem.

Throw in the DRUG company's PR bullshit, stir in public opinion and what do you really get?

Yes, MOST of the sufferers keep suffering. The pharmaceutical companies keep making $$ on suspiciously ill-conceived treatments that mirror so-called mental health treatments.

Duh, where are the stats that show anything real? Which sufferers would STATE they are better?

So, that is today's rant.

While I am ranting. An Inconvenient Truth by VP Gore and other Inconvenient Truths like Michael Moore's Sicko, well there are truths no one wants to know about and our futures are being trashed by our willingness to stick our heads in the sand or up our asses. Shame on us. I voted for VP Gore and felt he would have done a MUCH better job than his opponent.
