I remember this mvie about the two girls in Indianopolis in the 1950s who wer abused by a single mother with four kids (2 girls, 2 boys). She took in these girls because the parents were carnies and the carnie life is not for kids.
One girl was lame.
The other girl, the oldest, was physically abused until she died of a severe beating. The younger one was abused but not as much.
This happened because the mother belied her own kids, even when the oldest daughter lied about her having sex, which started it all.
Ultimately the mom went to prison for manslaughter and was let out after 10 years for good behavior. She blamed the barbituates.
It killed Marilyn Monroe. Other celebrities did weird stuff while high on barbituates. Then they banned the sale of it. Nobody did stupid stuff like this since then, except until tranquilizers started causing problems.
As did Ambien.
MMMmmmmm pharmaceutical are bad. Illegal drugs, no so bad, except for crystal meth and crack.
We should ban drugs for mental problems.
However, people would panic because they think drugs "cure" mental illness. Actually Abilify causes schizophrenia in people misdiagnosed with the disease.
I bet antidepressant cause anxiety or what looks like anxiety but is akathasia. Doctors who mistake akathasia for anxiety up the dose, causing suicide bids. Some people died cos of that mistake.
Therefore antidepressant are dangerous when used as directed.
Drugs are bad, especially the ones you get by prescription.
Illegal ones aren't because only stupid people use drugs, stupid people like Steve Jobs. :)I remember this mvie about the two girls in Indianopolis in the 1950s who wer abused by a single mother with four kids (2 girls, 2 boys).

Big Pharma and Sugar Kills More than Illegal Drugs Do
More deaths are attributable to pharmaceuticals than to illegal drugs.
Indeed, there is no epidemic of illegal drug use.
Research has shown that LSD helps autistic kids to communicate better, that MDMA in a therapeutic setting is more effective than a lifetime of psychotropic drugs for mental illness, and that marijuana is more effective in reducing the effects of anorexia than psychiatric medication.
The only reason why the Canadian Medical Association is against illegal drug decriminalization is because of the loss of profits of pĥarmaceuticals. Even the anticipated surge of drug use would not be as high as they predict.
Thus the reason illegal drugs are illegal is because Big Pharma would rather drug addicts be placed on their medications until they become dependent on psychotropics.
However, Big Pharma also provides drugs which are legitimate and more likely to kill people, when not used as directed.
Although the same logic applies to illegal drugs, legal drugs such as alcohol and tobacco are used more often and have killed more people. Even the overconsumption of sugar has lead to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity, which kill more people than illegal drugs.
Decriminalization of illegal drugs is better than the current system in place for the profit of the State. For drug addiction is a medical problem, and illegal drugs should be decriminalized precisely because their prohibition has only contributed to drug-related crime (home invasions and theft).
It might not look as pretty as now, but police resources are better spent reducing the harm drug abuse causes rather than perpetuating the myth that illegal drugs are more dangerous than legal ones.
