09/28 Overmedicating America: The Cruise Controversy

Quote From: tammyo1973

she may not be alive today if it weren't for her medications. 

I am not saying that doctors do not over prescribe but I think there are some cases where the ONLY way to live a productive life is to be on medication. I think Mr. Cruise was totally wrong for using his movie as a way to put down mental health. He is WRONG when he says there is no such thing as a chemical imbalance of the brain. 

Bipolar is one very REAL mental illness that is in fact an imbalance of chemicals in the brain. 

My daughter is not a zombie on her medications, she is better. Before meds she used to rage and destroy things and was very aggressive towards her sister who is 11 years YOUNGER than her. Since being on the right combo of meds at the right dose she is a much better person. She can function and doesn't hurt her sister and doesn't rage out of control anymore.

When did he use the movie to put down mental health?
