Neither do I. Nor do I accept cherrypicked and improperly interpreted studies as fact.
But to clarify, by "it" I was referring to my family members who were dangerous before they even had a bit of psychiatric medication and less dangerous after. Not to this particular woman, who apparently did take medications at times (and was, according to her family less dangerous when she did.) The focus of the article was the cost and difficulty of obtaining proper treatment.
If you aren't willing to consider that you may be harming others, there's not much I can do. You'll harm or not, and it's beyond my control. I imagine anyone who is thinking clearly can easily judge your posts on their merits, and treat them accordingly. I think Dr. Bob is doing a disservice to those who may be particularly vulnerable at any given time.
If you're going around telling posters they are harming people by pushing medications, calling them drug pushers, etc. I think it is perfectly ok for others to point out that you may be harming people. Why do you think it's ok for you to do it, but not for others to respond by pointing out the dangers and irresponsibility of your own posts? Do you report yourself when you call other Babblers names? Or accuse them of drug pushing?
I personally don't think either is particularly civil. But what can we do when we're abandoned? We are abandoned, and need to rely on what tools we have.
I don't understand AT ALL why you give a fat rat's *ss what Dr. Bob thinks about your posts or what he does and doesn't allow.
DR. BOB IS NOT MONITORING THE D*MN FORUM! SAY WHAT YOU LIKE!
Just recognize that people will show you the same level of respect and courtesy that you show them.
