It sure was. Allen Iverson lead a starting five of Dikembe, Aaron McKie Tyrone Hill and Jumaine Jones to the Finals in 2000. I was at a bunch of those 2001 Celtics Playoff games. That team made the ECF shooting 700 three's. When asked why he shot so many three pointers Antoine Walker responded "Because there are no…

There have legit been like four good games tops this entire post season. I mean the second KD signed with Golden State we knew everything was a warm up for the another Cavs-Warriors Finals but I thought it's be more competitive than THIS.

Huh there should be some chanting happening here…that's the darndest thing

Fairuza Balk, Biggie Smalls and Jeffrey Dahmer together at last!

27. He would have been 44 today. HOLY SHIT HE DIED 20 YEARS AGO THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT.

Most of them are dead inside and unable to feel any human emotion, unfortunately.

It should be! I've talked to a lawyer though and he said it's almost impossible for a patient in my situation to successfully sue the doctor. It's so insidious. Their protected by the pharmaceutical companies and it's just such a big money maker that it's not going to happen and that would open the door to tens of…

I don't I just meant ideally if they did their job and actually protected the interest of public safety they should have. They don't give a fuck as long as everybody gets paid.

Some SSRI's can help but no there really aren't and benzos AREN'T a "cure" for anxiety at best they mask your symptoms until you become tolerant they're really only supposed to be used in emergencies and there REALLY need to be laws put in place by the FDA to make it illegal for a patient to accept a prescription…

Bahaha r/The_Donald has gone private as three of the mods were removed for failure to protect users from harassment by other users. They made a new…whatever they call subreddits at the dank urine soaked hell hole known as Voat as they scramble to find a new safe space. This is hysterical. Here's an example of one of…

After the build up to the "No one's gonna take me alive" part.

With some doctors there is but with many there isn't. The FDA should have stepped in a long time ago and made sure this controlled substance was handled with the care it deserves but IMO there's too much money to be made and a lot of them don't even know because they've been taught that they aren't dangerous as a…

That is completely inaccurate. In fact it's short half life makes it more addicting and for most people more difficult to get off than a longer acting benzo like Klonopin or Valium (which are also complete hell to get off) since it leaves your blood stream faster and makes you crave it more frequently.

Right or maybe if you look up the side effects of Ativan and long term use you'll see that "suicidal ideation" is one of them not to mention especially as a recovering addict if he developed a dependency to benzos, especially a short acting one like Ativan, he must have been in a torture chamber.

Gross like making song puns a day after the guy fucking killed himself?

People need to understand that longterm Ativan use IS a root cause of suicide. I'm in a support group for people addicted to benzos and over 10 people have killed themselves BECAUSE of longterm benzo usage as prescribed by their doctors over the past year. Young, intelligent, funny people who never in a million years…

That's a very misleading headline. His wife is saying that he may have been abusing Ativan or even just developed a dependency or had an adverse reaction since suicidal ideation is a side effect which could have lead to his suicide. I don't know why they worded it that way. He hung himself of course it was a suicide.

That is completely backwards. You have a much higher chance of killing yourself by taking too many Tylenol than you do by taking too many Ativan unless combined with another CNS depressant like opiates or alcohol. You can destroy your liver with a handful of Tylenol and take 50 benzos and live to tell about it. Ativan…

It's not being Tom Cruise to say that benzos are waaaaaaaaaay overprescribed and misunderstood by prescribers. It's so easy for people to develop a crippling dependency and once that happens for a good percentage of people getting off is absolute mental, physical and emotional torture. But by and large this isn't even…

The doctor that gave me an Ativan script with no warning about the dangers of addictions gave me, a recovering addict, one and told me to take three pills a day everyday. With three refills no less. Welcome to the American mental health care system.
