    I like the American commercials for pharmaceuticals. May cause - enter 3 pages of side effects here. I remember one saying may cause death from heart failure or something.

    They should be required to start out with the most serious first, as in the fatal ones.

    others don't matter in that case.

    Why don't they label those "still in testing phase" pharmaceuticals as just poison.
    I'm sure it'd sell just as well if not more so

    To be quite honest I find that pharmaceutical companies are some of the most corrupt companies out there, they don't care whatsoever about the people taking the pills only the cash, the sad thing is that a lot of these pills that they make are almost non-functional, I hope soon actual science will go into the treatment of sick people, they keep talking about elder abuse and shit, and the fact is, is that people who have any health problem of any sort is being abused and cheated by these "businesses". I would trust a lawyer over a pharmaceutical company any day.

    Yeah, it's anger-related, I get angry *very* easily. And then I tend to destroy stationary or something, I remember destroying a suitcase and actually breaking a pair of scissors out of anger. And in some cases, I don't even remember a thing about it.

    I did, actually. It's just that South Africa is a horrible place.

    I'm 16, and I'm not home-schooled, because it's pretty expensive in South Africa. But my father believes otherwise, but that's because he likes spending money as if it was unlimited. He always buys things that aren't important yet until in the far future.

    At the moment, there's no food, but hopefully my father will return from work tomorrow. With money.

    Because I don't have an ID. Also, there's no basement at home.
    An ID photo costs about R15, and with food, water and bills and electricity being more important...

    And if anyone is going to respond with "I should sell my computer" then it basically means that said person/people is/are saying that my father may as well be jobless.
    My father's job requires the Internet, because knowing which days would be best to go salvaging stuff from shipwrecks is important, thus he uses the Internet. And the television weather reports are completely inaccurate, they show snow in the summer when it shouldn't be snowing.

    EDIT:
    Wow. This is my first large post in ages.
    And I've been quadruple-ninja'd. I think.

    Yeah, I've heard that too. The way you have to look at it is there are two main aims of anti depressants - the first is to ease the depression (obviously) and the second is to give you a slight nudge so you can get up and do things for yourself. Unfortunately it doesn't always happen in that order, and if the medication gives someone with suicidal thoughts that "push" before it lifts their mood, bad shit can happen. That's where doctors comes in. Any good one will start someone on a low dose and monitor them closely for the first few weeks to make sure they're adjusting OK.

    Yeah I heard that it was pretty bad in South Africa, pretty much anywhere where the colonials went they ****ed up. I am actually somewhat ashamed of my European heritage, even though my family was in a later wave, and being a french one we were... not treated well by the British. I am not angry about it, but to this day they're is still anti-french sentiments, and it pisses me off.
