Hmm I don't think that is likely, you are being monitored by your doctor whilst on it right? Or at least some form of professional?
Damn I'll have to try something else then
<.< Perhaps a shrink >.>

They should be treated equally but given how we treat the next closest thing to a sentient species on this planet I'm not holding out much hope for meatbags to be respectful to AI.
They shouldn't be slaves but no doubt they will.

Fluoxetine is medicine, despite the scaremongering around it. You just don't use it as a catchall drug to any and all patients especially not those under the ages of 18-21 in the same way that you don't put someone on insulin if they don't have diabetes.
Psychiatry in the US is deeply flawed, especially when it comes to depression. SSRI's like Prozac can be helpful for some people, but the problem is that they take quite a while to start working, and once they do start to work, they only work a short time before the drug starts to lose its effect and thus the patient will usually be told they need an a dosage increase.
The problem with these drugs is that they don't actually increase the amount of serotonin in the brain, they simply stop the reuptake of serotonin so that your brain thinks there is more, but that serotonin eventually becomes depleted and the patient will require a higher dose to get a the same effect.
There is also some research that SSRIs are effective, but they are only as effective as placebo. To me, it just doesn't seem logical to take something with so many side effects (like the possibility of increased aggression and suicidality in some people) when the only positive is that it's maybe as effective as taking a sugar pill.
Really the problem is rooted in the philosophy of current medicine, we treat people and diseases as if we were broken machines, focusing only on the "broken part" rather than looking at the whole person and trying to figure out why this person is depressed in the first place. There are non pharmaceutical ways of increasing neurotransmitters like serotonin in the brain without using brain altering drugs like SSRIs which are dangerous and ineffective.
Indeed, flawed is putting it kindly imo.
SSRIs are reasonable as a stopgap treatment, but it is just putting a plaster over the wound rather than sorting out the issue at hand. What I've seen to be most effective is combination treatment, where a therapist/psych/counsellor of some kind (Depends on the problem) is using a talking therapy in conjunction with a prescription. The drugs pull them out of a nosedive and then the therapy itself helps them fly normally again <.<
I don't agree with how they are happy to prescribe them willynilly, it shouldn't be 'Sad? Have some SSRIs!' but that seems to be how it goes in the states. It's not quite so problematic in the UK but instead you have atrocious waiting lists and 3-4 shrinks trying to manage 100+ patients.
A lot of it depends on the severity of the depression, people with mild depression probably don't need medication at all and they simply need someone to help them through their difficulties, people with MDD are the ones who will benefit from medical treatments (with the therapy) for obvious enough reasons <.<
There are a few newer classes of drugs that are a bit more up to date than the SSRIs and Clozapines that used to be used quite heavily and they aren't quite as bad. Prozac isn't great but it doesn't do anyone any favours that it's being made out to be the devil in pill form.
You wanna talk about willynilly prescriptions? ADD/ADHD medication is wildly overprescribed to kids who are just being kids, the fucking drug companies are in bed with the doctors and pushing their pills every which way they can.
Also on a somewhat related note, I'm on Prozac, am I going to die?
Indeed it is, ADD/ADHD are both very real but the number of people who have it and require medication to combat it is far lower than the prescription rates would imply. Then you have the whole abuse of the drug as a cognition aid among students which further adds to the fun. Hmm I don't think that is likely, you are being monitored by your doctor whilst on it right? Or at least some form of professional?

The Office UK
Breaking Bad, but the ending was perhaps a little too perfect
Justified, in fact the whole season was perfect after a lackluster s5
Ah good, so it wasn't just me then. S5 seemed a bit dry >.>

My favorite RTS to date, has a bit of a steep learning curve but love it. If you get it I'd definitely play it with you
Oh and IMO its a lot more of an in depth on the RTS features than Total War
I always kind of found Total War to be the casual's RTS
Yeah Total War is good for the battles but it's definitely a casual game. Not that that's a bad thing and all, but from my brief poke around with the demo it seems like quite the indepth game <_< Not quite Project Terra Mk.2 but close enough that I want to play it >_> And yeah if I ever git gud with it I'd be up for a game <.<

I struggle to think of many, ATLA is up there and I haven't watched S6 of Justified but I have reasonable hopes that they don't pull a Dexter.
I can think of a couple of chinese cartoonss that have perfect endings but even then it's a handful rather than loads <_<
Justified S6 is the last season?
I haven't even watched S5 yet.
Yup I recall Timothy Oliphant saying to the effect of 'We don't want to drag it out endlessly and let it die a shitty watered down death, we want things done well and that means ending it with S6 rather than making more' I can't remember the exact words but that was the gist of it, which whilst it's sad that it's going to end it's better it goes out in style than does a Dexter and spends two seasons circling the drain then blocking the toilet up for years to come.

LC is a pretty girl, you could ask him for pics.
Yeah, but grandma LC is old and wrinkly
There are two LCs though.
stop
I'm just saying, there is Gramma LC and there is Elsee.
I'm not familiar with this meme, please explain
Well you see, long long ago when LC got bumped up to admin/cheef of the mods I suggested the title of Grandmaster Ninja was awarded to the position <_<
This has the terribly unfortunate coincidence of being cut off as 'Grandma' on mobile hence 'Grandma LC' but neko being the γ«γγ that he is deleted the screencap from his photobucket or someshit so it is forever lost ;-;
Elsee is what LC sounds like when you say it, and since Elsie is a girls name LC is a pretty girl.
Also this
For those wondering, this is about 90% of what goes on in the super secret mod chat.
Why is there even a secret mod chat
So we can flame each other and spy on users. And shitpost, lots of shitposting ITC. For a serious answer it's just because it's faster to communicate with each other than via PMs when we have some fun new forum drama to clean up.
