I think people who don't ever experience a certain health issue can talk very sanctimoniously about what sufferers should and should not do. Tom Cruise obviously has never suffered from depression and does not know firsthand that vitamins are not a cure-all! It's easy to memorize someone else's views and spout them off (as he seems to be doing.)
I agree that psy. has a dark and often scary history, but there are gold nuggets too. If certain meds help, why should we be against it? Why should HE be against it? I think there probably ARE some natural cures out there, but man-made cures are obviously very effective too!
I'm annoyed at Tom Cruise for those comments. I wonder how long he and his new love Katie will last?
