[humanser] psychiatric medication question

[Michael Abell]

Hello,
	We all mean well, but harm can come from many directions.
	Before you tell his mother what you have heard from another source,
you might want to ask your friend in a non-threatening way about his
medication ritual. You may lose a friend if you "tell on him" to his mother
without first verifying that he is truly not taking his medication. Then,
even if he is not taking his medication, it is his choice and his
information to share.
	Even the most brilliant physician would not dispense advice about
someone not his patient to a non-physician about adjusting medications. We
all need to be careful when being asked questions about problems we are not
treating for. That's why malpractice exists..

Whoe, before we go around discussing adjusting his dosages, he needs to take
that up with his doctor.
