> Lou, yes, I do believe the main & over-riding purpose of a drug company is to make money. The benefits of lithium carbonate as a mood stabaliser was known in the late '40s at least but it wasn't till a number of decades later that drug companies showed any interest in it. Why? Because lithium carbonate is a natually occuring salt & can't be pateneted. Without the patent, any company could make it cheap & there was no real profit in it. I'm fully aware of how this world operates by money & power.

> But I don't believe that makes all medications evil. Lou, I've been taking psychotropic medications for over 15 years - long enough to have 'poisoned' my system by now. What am I like? Well, I'm neither overweight, nor underweight. I have good muscle tone, strength & flexibility still. I have far fewer migraines than I did when young & they're not that severe anymore. My digestion is good, all systems work very well. A thorough physical check-up (not just the annual sort) shows good health. I don't get sick - no stomach 'flus', infections or anything like that. I'm commonly mistaken for someone in my mid-thirties & I'm 52. Am I boasting? No, but I think if my meds were poisoning me there would be evidence to show it. I am careful about living a healthy lifestyle with frequent physical activity & sound nutrition.

> If others choose not to take meds & can do without, hurray for them. I'll be behind them every step, but I don't want someone telling me I don't need them. I've decided already. Thank you very much & I sincerely mean it. I hope you success with your quest about your musical hallucinations. If I ever hear something new about it (I read a lot of science journals), I'll let you know.

ISO; You are in wonderfull shape. My father was a picture of health when the doctor diagnosed his leukemia.The luekemia has another name when it is induced by a psychotropic drug. I remember the purple spotsall over his body. He died 1 year later of a horrible death. He weighed 60 lbs. when he died. ISO, are you so ignorant as to believe that just because you are beautiful that you will not be stricken by one of these fatal diseases? Marilyn Monroe was beatifull. Psychotropic drugs do not exempt people from their ravages just because you look good. My father took a psychtropic drug for 20 years before he died. The statistics show a progression that is greater than an arithmetic progression when the people get older. 20% is a conservative figure with people your age. The 2 1/2 % is for young , healthy people. The older you get, the more your chances are for the drug to kill you. ISO, what is the drug that you take?
Lou
