In memory of those we lost in the past years... this dedication is to you, the eccentrics, the free thinkers, people who made a difference in our lives both in the real world and on the net.Thank you for the memories.

Did he do it to any anothers?Yes, he did it to some patients so they should take the medications he wanted them to take etc. The sickest people in the Swedish mental ward are the doctors. The psychs are the real psychopaths.

I agreed to the ECT beacause I hoped it would render me brain-dead for good. I felt I had nothing to lose.BTW, I am not so glum now.Wow. I can actually understand that sentiment. I'd just be worried about losing what might bevital.

sociopaths gravitate toward positions of power, especially healthcare, politics and child-care. of course the same goes for people who truly care and want to help people. makes it kinda tricky.

It is much more difficult to involuntarily commit someone for mental health treatment here in the U.S. The person gets an attorney, for free if he can't afford one, and it goes to trial. Whoever wants to involuntarily commit the person has to prove to the judge that the person is a danger to himself or others. It has to go to trial again if they want to keep the person committed over a certain number of days. In my experience, they want to get the person out of the mental hospital as soon as possible.

I'd just be worried about losing what might bevital.I lost a lot of memory. There are chunks of time that are just missing and I still haven't remembered them.Also my RAM (as I call it!) is probably less than half of what it used to be and it was never any good in the first place.They say that it takes about two months for memory to go back to normal. Maybe that is for some people but it is still affecting me now, a year later.

didn't exactly get sold on the idea from that scene in Requiem for a dream
