This has nothing to do with Scientology. This has to do with his ignorance.

Cruise Slams Shields' Drug Use

Tom Cruise has criticized Hollywood pal Brooke Shields' "misguided" use of the anti-depressant Paxil, while declaring the actress' career as over. In an interview with Billy Bush on TV show Access Hollywood, to be screened on Thursday, Cruise speaks of his disappointment to learn Shields used Paxil to fight post-natal depression following the birth of her daughter Rowan. Shields is currently weaning herself off her medication so she and husband Chris Henchy can have another child. Cruise, who claims to have helped people fight drug addictions through his controversial Scientology religion, says the Suddenly Susan actress should have used vitamins to help her feelings of despair. Cruise says, "Here is a woman, and I care about Brooke Shields because I think she is an incredibly talented woman. You look at, where has her career gone?" Despite the Minority Report actor's declaration her career is over, Shields is currently receiving rave reviews playing murderess Roxie Hart in the London theatre production of Chicago. Cruise maintains, "These drugs are dangerous. I have actually helped people come off. When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today, women, and what you do is you use vitamins. There is a hormonal thing that is going on, scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that. You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things."

First of all...who cares where her career is going?? Just because he's so humg up on work doesn't mean everyone has to be. Maybe she likes doing stage work, or GOD FORBID, staying home with her child. Does Tom even care where his kids are?

Second...WTFH does he know about Paxil???? Huh? Sure, it can be dangerous if you stop it cold turkey or give it to kids, but is she doing either??? NO. And this genius statement: But when you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that. You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things. A chemical imbalance isn't scientific. Hmm. Did this man go to High School? THERE IS PLENTY OF SCIENCE BEHIND THAT, YOU IGNORANT FOOL. No, some kid discovered Paxil in his backyard while playing with pop rocks.

Paxil is 100% better than vitamins; I know, I'm on it. And it has helped me out imensely. No vitamin, which actually hasn't been proven 100%, without a doubt to work fully against moderate to severe mental/emotional disorders, is gonna help. Can a vitamin make the cells in your brain stop taking the seretonin it sends back in?? That's the SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN reason behind many cases of depression and anxiety.

What a worthless *******.

That pisses me off. He has no idea what she went through. If anything she was responsible to have medication for her mental condition. Stop trying to sound like a smartass Cruise.

Scientology is a bunch of BS. It was created by a Science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. I can't believe a majority of Hollywood follows that crap.

Has he ever had chronic depression - or post natal depression? I always loved you, but shut up Tom.

Hollow · 05-25-2005, 10:41 PM

does he think he's some kind of psychiatrist? he doesn't know the FIRST thing about depression, chemical imbalances or prescription drugs. he's never been a depressed woman trying out vitamins and drugs to see which worked best. if vitamins were all it took to treat it, antidepressants wouldn't exist. my god, he is stupid.

Hey, he might be an idiot, but when you're an idiot with an ass like that, you can be as big an idiot as you want to be!

dawsongirl · 05-25-2005, 10:49 PM

He needs to read a story called "The Yellow Wallpaper."

And a biology book.

Exactly!! It's people like him that still treat mental illness as if something invades your body and its just mind over matter or vitamins to get rid of it. Get real Tom!! If it weren't for Prozac ten years ago I probably wouldn't be here right now you f&%#ing idiot!!

yeah, i used to be addicted to paxil and had to wean off it because it was so dangerous. i tried to quit cold turkey once and the whole day i was crying and wanting to kill myself. a study also confirmed that patients under 18 taking paxil have an increased risk of suicide (i was 13). i'm on lexapro now but i'm going to wean off it soon becaise i might not need antidepressants anymore. i don't even know whether they helped me because i've been taking them too long to notice a difference. regardless, vitamins are for nutrition and DO NOT affect chemical imbalances in the brain.

I hope if his daughter ever gets depressed, she talks to her mother about it instead of her father.

I should have said an anatomy book instead of biology, but it looks like he could benefit from both. And read some literature on some of our fine drugs, like Paxil, Prozac, Lexapro, etc.

You're right on both - since many illnesses are caused by chemical imbalances, that would fall under biology I think. I guess he also thinks that Epilepsy is the devil entering a person's body. And I thought this guy was intelligent Geez!

Ags2000 · 05-25-2005, 11:06 PM

Ya know...it's ignorant and asanine statements like that that make people with depression feel worse about themselves. I mean to say it's not a chemical imbalance, that vitamins will work...WTF...he sounds like my grandmother.

I've had many...um..."discussions" with her telling her that vitamins wouldn't have done for **** for me and if it wasn't for the meds I'd be dead right now (she never knew I was suicidal) Talk about a shocker for her.

I really hope somebody sets him straight and tells him to keep his mouth shut for stuff he has no idea about...no matter how cute his ass is.
