thanks for a great post- many a true word spoken in jest

I am not arguing against the use of SSRIs for service personnel- far from it. What angers me is that my government [the UK] and yours has sent our young men and women into such a situation where they end up having to have antidepressants etc, and have done so for generations.

http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1811858-2,00.html This is an article from time magazine that reports on the use of SSRIs among troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. What we ask them to do is causing this problem. Should we ask young men and women to go through this? I would say no. What do you think?

Many years ago I worked in a nursing home caring for a lady who was dying. About an hour before she died she looked terrified and kept pointing to a corner of the room but would not tell us what she saw. She insisted that her daughter[who was with her] hold up a picture of the Pope before her face. This settled her and she passed away peacefully

no but having read this topic has made me think it is somrthing to sort out pdq:uhoh21:

Is there an UK equivalent to the AHNA?

I am sorry to hear what you have had to put up with- hope you find somewhere nicer to work
