I agree, to an extent. There are some flakes out there. I mean, people who do take advantage of the vulnerable.

I think that we are all overmedicated. It's been happening for years with kids who suffer from ADHD. But that is beside the point.

Sometimes I think I miss the point of a post and the fact of the matter is I try to be kind and empathetic to people's feelings. The simple fact is, having suffered from psychosis myself, that it is very invalidating to have someone tell us something is not true when in our minds we truly believe that it is. That's sorta right up there with my dislike for the word "normal". Who is the judge of that?

I hope this has not been the case. I'm worried about my friends.

What I mean is, I'm not sure, but I think this was the sharing of personal feelings by CCL and I just hope that since it's turned into an intellectual discussion that she or some others do not feel that the point has been missed and are not feeling alienated. I could be wrong, please let me know if that's the case.

Hope everyone is taking care and that I've not offended anyone.
