Hey all, since I am already convinced, of all the things I have lost in life... It is my *mind* that I miss the most!Here is the $2.00, Medicaid co-pay question.... What is the half life of a placebo?
Thanks
Snapper

> SnapperWell, I'm not sure I know the answer to your question, but I recall an event that might give you part of the answer. I read about a man who overdosed on placebo. He only thought he was dead. The paramedics only acted like they rushed him to the hospital, and he made a full recovery.
I know it is only anecdote, but it might be useful, anyway.

Would that be the XR version?I think it depends on how often you can afford to renew the prescription.

> - Scotthello there, chemist here..i feel that scott's post must be amended with the caveat that be sure to get the name-brand placebo and not the generic placebo: many posters (not me) have indicated that the name-brand is superior to generic. all the best, chemist

Yes, I think that the people who post regularly on this board are not only highly intelligent and well-informed, but also very witty and clever too. (I wonder which came first.)

Thanks to all for their responces! I did mean my statement and query to be both thought provoking and hopefully humorous in its content. (hope it was *not* taken the wrong way!)Also there is a significant proportion of witty, clever and just down right intelligent array of posters on this board! Just because mood disorders can make one feel *retarded*, def. does not imply or make one so. I am sorry! If my post came across in a manner that was anything other than goofy, pointless and certainly and hopefully a little bit humorous-even if it did sound a little benign!If anything, *we* have not lost our minds. Our minds are fine and it is our brains that we are all so desperately seeking to fix, or at least on a quest to help them function better than they are! I sincerely wish all of you luck,& success in trying to find that magical combo of meds or otherwise in hopes of finding that elusive but certainly attainable goal of a better, happier state of mind, in which many if not most human beings seem to take for granted-a proper functioning brain! Peace and Best to all!!

Not only were the answers great, the question was too! It just goes to show that snapper still has a darn good mind.
