Scott wrote,[...Doxepin is not addictive...].
That statement could seriously mislead you to take the drug thinking that there would be no withdrawal symptoms when stopped which is false. This drug like its class subjects has a severe withdrawal syndrome that could cause suicide in that state and the commission of murder.
That Mr. Hsiung allows Scott to post what could lead you to your death, (redacted by respondent).
But it is much worse than that. For whatever Scott promotes here, you could be seriously misled to believe that the drugs are safer than they really are, including thinking that this drug does not have a withdrawal syndrome as Scott says that the drug is not addictive.
Be advised that misinformation could cause your death from reading here. I have come here to warn you of the serious consequences to you or a loved one that you are drugging in collaboration with a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist here allows what could kill you to be posted here without him intervening. He says that he is doing what will be good in his thinking for this community as a whole and to trust him at that and that he prescribes to the Golden Rule. I do not think that going through the horrors of withdrawing from a drug is good for anyone and does not in my thinking make any community better or gooder or whatever Mr. Hsiung's fantasy he has in his mind to allow this to continue here.
