2. Remain respectful at all times.
- Exercise tolerance and respect toward other participants whose views may differ from your own.
- Disagreements are fine, but mutual respect is a must.

IMPORTANT:
Every person reacts to medications differently. Some people may have debilitating side effects that prevents them from benefitting their medical use. Keep in mind that for other people these same medications are not poison, but rather can restore quality of life and in some cases be life saving.

Talk to your doctor if you have questions about medication.

Please post with respect.
