> Jay are you saying most schizophrenics are catatonic? I've never seen that. Most are out of reality. Hearing voices in their heads and delusinal. Did I read you wrong? And why the dicussion of codeine. So what if someone takes it to feel better. People drink alchohol to feel better or euphoric as you call it and it's legal. I think this discussion has gotten out of hand. Maybe E-mail would be better. I thought this was on MAOIS? Love Phillipa


Email was better, if you want to know the truth, Ed and I have been bantering there and its come out here and I believe Ed has been a bit obsessive about my views, and we've been there over and over so I ended my opinions. I don't believe that it should have been diverted for euphoria in the US because now we can't take it over the counter for cough medication in the US like we used to. I also don't think it is the best choice of a psychiatric medication when there are others out there with less potential for morphine addiction, etc, etc, etc... and that was the whole content of countless emails. End of story, and I've closed the chapter with Ed. And please for goodness sakes, I like ya Eddy, so lets not go on again. And you agree with Ed about alcohol and I agree in moderation, so I'm not going to argue with it. It was not about one-offs, Phillipa, it was about continuous use of it as people use alcohol continuously for GABA use and the continuous use of either drug can be more harmful than some psychiatric medications. Finit, okay.


I used the wrong medical term -- what I meant was the vast majority of schizophrenics that I've observed are dysphoric and exhibit part of the symptoms of catatonia - stupor and stereotypy. My mistake. My point with this whole thread as for schizophrenia was yes, you're right, the vast majority are quiescent and introverted and the word is on the tip of my tongue but I misplaced it.

Yes, this started as MAOIs but the whole thread as you can see is multifaceted.

Cheers
