Lou:
Here are two comments re: what this board is about:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
"This is a message board for mutual support and education. It focuses on medication-related issues. "
I believe the term "mutual support" indicates that "selling" a product or a concept re: the absolute evil of meds, is not "supportive". Pointing out problems with meds is encouraged, because they truly do have bad side effects.
But what you're doing (imo) is trying to convert people who are on medications for mood and thought disorders, on a board for people with mood and thought disorders on medication, to people who find drugs not only unnecessary (in all cases according to you) but also evil.
It's like going to a Jewish Synagogue and trying to convert them to Christianity during their worship service. Maybe large signs and some noise makers would help? (I'm being sarcastic, sorry. ;))
