I don't disagree with your point; I do want to point out, though, that whether it's "the merchants have to raise their prices" or "the merchants benefit too and are complicit", the end result is still that it&#

Have you based all of your comments in this thread off of this single experience? I’ve seen 4 different therapists in my adult life, and I have yet to experience this strict neutrality adherence you’ve been describing.

I was on escitalopram for a while. Then I added Wellbutrin, took away the escitalopram, added fluoxetine, and now I’m off all of it. My advice is to take a breath and focus on the present. Chip away at what’s causing your anxiety. Don’t shy

I miss when this forum wasn’t so vitriolic. Of course humans also hallucinate, but we didn’t have to take that into account every single time we read a piece of information on the internet. Humans have well-documented cognitive biases. Als

I’m a math tutor at a run-of-the-mill state university and I can tell you for certain that the average student in college algebra and especially in pre-calculus has to work hard to pass. Both classes have a substantial amount of easy credit
