> Wow, we can all see why you are on this forum! If you could break out of your own emotional anger and turmoil for a little you would see a whole other world around you.
Gee, thanks! I've never thought of it that way! I *can* just "break out" of my own emotional anger and turmoil, just like that, magic! 15 years of therapy... what a waste!
Are you *serious*? Do you often join mental health forums and begin your very first post by insulting someone with an obvious mental health issue, and suggest his life would be better if he could simply "see a whole other world around" him? My God...
I'm not against small businesses. I'm against small businesses who make outrageous, blatantly false claims so as to cash in on desperate individuals hoping for a magic cure to their long-standing problems. The fact that I'm *also* pissed at Goldman Sachs and many large drug companies is completely irrelevant.
Also note: "business's" is the possessive form of a (singular) business, as in: "this business's profits have tanked"... I'm not going to suggest that you "break out" of your failure to grasp elementary English grammar, because I realize different people have different abilities and disabilities, and you can't just magically become proficient in English any more than I can just magically stop being depressed.
I'm more than a bit curious why you chose to assert in the title of your post that "GABATROL is manufactured in a GMP facility", as if it were a fact just because you have apparently worked for nutritional companies before. How are you so certain about this *particular* product? If you've worked (or currently work) for this specific company before, this is definitely information you should say explicitly.
I mention this because it doesn't seem to be above this particular company to hawk its own product with obvious shills. See http://www.health-forums.com/alt-support-anxiety-panic/anyone-here-try-new-gabatrol-17387.html ...
"rked@att.net" posts: "Hey if anyone knows about skepticism ...its me. But I was seekingan (sic) alternative natural option for my anxiety attacks...and I happened upon Gabatrol (it was just released a month ago) and I have to tell ya...it works" (this is a snippet of one of two postings in this thread by him/her)
What "rked@att.net" (aka Robert Keddie of Hulbert, Oklahoma) -doesn't- tell you is that HE OWNS the gabatrol website. See http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/gabatrol.com .
This is honestly sickening marketing.
