Facebook Wins!

A long time ago in an internet far, far away I utilized a thing called MySpace. In the beginning it was good. As time passed it was attacked by spam and too many people taking pictures of themselves in the mirror. It wasn't the worst thing in the world, but there was one feature that caused me to stop frequenting it: My blog. In the early days of me filling the internets with my thoughts, it used to be through MySpace. As my frustration grew with the limited access for outsiders and whole posts being lost in internet space, I eventually came to know Blogger. Then Facebook came along and stole my heart. Why is this important to you? Because, you may not be aware that there have been previous blog posts not on this blog. And, you may not be aware that I have set next Tuesday as the day I delete my MySpace account, denying you the opportunity to ever see those blog posts again (no need to cry about it). For this reason I am including this link for you to check out the previous blog posts before they are gone. I promise that if you read them, your eyes will probably still work afterward.

As an added service to you, I will be posting highlights from the former blog up until next Tuesday. I figured that today I would begin with the blog post that started it all:

General Mills Current mood: curious What branch of the service did General Mills serve in? I bet that he was involved in preparing meals in some sort of capacity. I also think that he somehow became a 4 star general and utilized that in his future profession as a restaurant critic. We can probably thank him for the whole star grading system. Along with his many magically delicious breakfast cereals. Why isn't this guy featured on the History Channel?

Cialis
Current mood: cynical

Is it just me, or do these ads for medicine keep getting more and more ridiculous? "Hi, I have genital herpes" Really, thanks for sharing that with the whole world. I know that you are an actor, but now you will be known as the actor from the herpes commercial. That isn't even the worst. Do you ever listen to all the possible side effects of these drugs? "Some of the side effects of this bowel medication may be worse diarreah, bloody stool, serious itching, and possible death" How many people are thinking that their diarreah is so bad that they are willing to risk death to get their bowels back to normal? And finally what about those erectile dysfunction drugs? The ad says "erections lasting longer than 4 hours should seek immediate medical attention" Their are so many wrong things about that statement. First of all, who sets a timer when the troops start to stand at attention. Secondly, I would think that the possibility of having to go to the emergency room with that problem would be embarassing enough to deter people from using the drug. Can you imagine that conversation:
Receptionist: What are you here for today sir?
Mr. Over 4 hours: I really don't want to say it out loud.
Receptionist: Well then just lean over the counter and whisper your problem to me.
Mr. Over 4 hours: I am trying, but I can't get close enough.
Receptionist: Why, is something in your way? Oh, now I see the problem. Go sit down and put a coat in your lap. The doctor will see you in a minute.

And then I am thinking what the doctor is going to do.
Doctor: O.K. Mr. Over 4 hours, don't worry I have seen this problem before. Go sit in room 4. Nurse, go get the video of the 300 pound guy eating Fritos in the nude for Mr. Over 4 hours to watch in room 4.

Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra.

Erectile dysfunction is the inability for a male to sustain an erection that will last throughout the duration of sex. The number of men who suffer from this affliction has significantly increased over the last decade, it is estimated that more than 20 million men suffer from male erectile dysfunction.

There have been a wide range of factors that play into this affliction. Factors like:

* Diabetes
* Kidney Disease
* Alcoholism
* Multiple Sclerosis
* Hypertension
* Neurological diseases



There are also a number of prescription medications that have side effects of male impotency. Also, it is interesting to note that physcological afflictions like anxiety, stress, and depression can be a leading factor in a man becoming impotent.

Erectile dysfunction can easily be diagnosed through physical examinations and blood tests. There is good news though! Men of all ages can be treated for this affliction. Surgery and counseling are recommended in a lot of cases, but now there are prescription drug treatments on the market that will specifically take care of this problem. As a matter of fact there are three major prescriptions that are available online and through a regular pharmacy. These three drugs are Viagra, Levitra, and cheap cialis.

Viagra was the first treatment available on the market, and is probably the best known drug for treatment of ED. The fact is that Viagra does not automatically give the patient an erection but aids in achieving an erection through sexual stimulation to the penis. Basically Viagra allows for blood flow to reach the genital area, and once the act of sex is complete the erection will simply disappear. It is highly recommended that men taking nitrates should not take Viagra.

Cialis works in the same effect as does Viagra. An erection is achieved through sexual stimulation, and once the male has ejaculated the erection then goes away. It is also recommended that men taking nitrates do not take cialis.

Levitra also works in the same way as its two competitors. It allows blood flow to the genitals that aid in an erection through stimulation. It too has many of the same common side effects as Viagra and Cialis, and is not recommended for men who are medicating themselves with nitrates.

Due to the costs of these three medications men have begun to save money by purchasing these drugs through online pharmacies. Online pharmacies also help to provide a discreet and less embarrassing avenue to get the drugs. Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra, have all been effective in combating erectile dysfunction, find one that is right from you and improve your sexual relationship today.

The truth about Antidepressants and Sexual Dysfunction.

The truth about Antidepressants and Sexual cheap cialis.



The Nasty Little Secrets behind the SSRIs



What they Never Tell You about Antidepressants. 



Almost every day now, or so it seems to me, I am hearing from young people who are taking antidepressant drugs and who are suffering from a sexual cheap cialis as a direct consequence. In men their dysfunction may be erectile dysfunction, loss of libido or sex drive, loss of sensation during ejaculation or loss of ability to climax at all. In women their situation may be similar – loss of interest in matters sexual, an inability to feel orgasm when it eventually arrives, or, worst of all, an inability to reach orgasm at all. These, I think you will have to agree, are pretty devastating side effects for a single drug to have.



When you get your antidepressant dispensed to you by your friendly Community Pharmacist there will be, tucked inside the box, a Patient Information Leaflet. This is an EU or FDA generated document that is supposed to mean something. It is supposed to impart at least some useful information. Let’s look at it for Prozac then, the most popular antidepressant of them all. Under side effects in the category

• Urogenital System and Reproductive Disorders : we have: difficulty in passing urine, passing urine too frequently, poor sexual performance, prolonged erections and the production of breast milk.



Then, under this misinformation there is even more untruths:



Most of these side-effects are likely to disappear with continued treatment.



This leaflet was last approved by the FDA and the MHRA (UK) in October 2010. No mention of female inability to orgasm, no mention of male ejaculatory failure, no mention of sexual anhedonia or sexual anaesthesia in both men and women and no mention of loss of libido or sex drive in both men and women. All the consumer of modern antidepressants is being told is that there maybe some poor sexual performance. This is meaningless, unfair and disingenuous. But unfortunately, it gets much worse.



Clearly the manufactures of these antidepressants want the consumers to continue consuming in spite of obvious side-effects. To do this they mislead them even further by asserting:



Most of these side-effects are likely to disappear with continued treatment.



With respect to the negative sexual effects of the SSRI antidepressants these most certainly do not disappear with continued use. In fact it has been my experience that they get progressively worse with continued use. And not alone that, and this is the really shocking bit, the negative side-effects on human sexuality that modern antidepressants can have, do not disappear even long after the medication has been stopped. Doctors who treat sexual dysfunction on a regular bases as I do, are beginning to now recognise a new post SSRI phenomenon called Persistent Sexual Anaesthesia. In my view it is nothing short of criminal that this possibility is not even hinted at on the Patient’s Instruction Leaflet that comes with the drugs.



If your sex-life has been adversely affected in any way by antidepressants then I would welcome hearing from you. The more people that know about this the better.
