Not surprisingly, she failed. I don't mean this to dismiss the serious problem of suicide among teens and young adults, and I feel very sorry for Alexa Ray Joel and her family. But you gotta think that this wasn't a serious attempt, or else, she knows nothing about homeopathy. I do...

After work on Fridays I enjoy a few beers and a meal at my favorite watering hole here in town. A fundy lawyer used to come into several of the bars in town preaching the gospel and basically telling us we were going to hell if we didn't quit using alcohol. He was kicked out of every bar in...

When I was on prozac I though of suicide every waking minute of every day. I felt ok physically except for the impotence it causes and I was cool and calm as a cucumber. Suicide was on my mind day in and day out until I quit taking that stuff. I tried other medications but with similar...
