Resolved Question: Could these have been symptoms of a spiked drink?
(Fri, 02 Dec 2011 14:33:16 GMT)
Hi, I had a "physical weakness episode" a couple of days back, and I'm almost certain it was fully endogenous (i.e., caused by my own bad daily regimen). However, since I was at a coffee house immediately prior, I can't completely exclude the possibility the drink may have been spiked. I'd appreciate your thoughts on the probability of that, based on the following description. This is likely one for medical professionals or others with some kind of substance experience.
Anyway, I had a rush o

Resolved Question: Is Psychiatry A Science? Gotta Read This.?
(Wed, 02 Feb 2011 05:43:48 GMT)
In order to answer this question objectively, we must understand what science is. Science is a method of indifferent experiments aimed at proving a theory. Someone comes up with a hypothesis, or "educated guess", but then has to PROVE this theory, using a series of controlled experimentation until objective, universal, and repeatedly verified facts can be obtained. This must be established in order for the theory to be proven beyond just an idea, to gain AUTHORITY in the way it is applied to t

Is there any sort of health problem that could lead to mental health issues.
Okay maybe that question doesn't make complete sense,
but for example... HIV can lead to Encephalitis which is inflammation of the brain...so the person was not born with HIV but was infected by it and it lead to this other condition...
what i'm trying to get at is,
is there anything that you are NOT born wwith, that could lead to mental illness? It can even be some sort of physical injury
