    Fuck, now what do we do?

    And are you really blaming a suicide on Dr. Drew? She dated Dead Cain before, personally I blame him for it.

    Not blaming Dr. Drew at all. The girl was fucked up beyond repair. Just stating that his track record "helping" these celebrities isn't exactly the best.

    Besides Steven Adler, can you name another cast member of that show that is still alive?

    It seems Dr. Drew is taking a lot of blame for his ex patients killing themselves because they are celebrities. Find another counselor that treats normal people and the results will be the same. Nobody knows the names of the doctors and people who take their lives that aren't on tv.

    I applaud Dr. Drew if people can see through the celebrity thing and get to the point that there are people real every day that are offing themselves. Look at suicide statistics for the Golden Gate Bridge. People off themselves there twice a month. Watch the documentary "The Bridge" and it will open your eyes and then read the stories of survivors from jumping from the bridge. One man says as soon as he jumped he felt this was the one problem in his life he could not fix and he regretted jumping (he lived).

    (NEWSER) – GlaxoSmithKline this week agreed to pay $3 billion to settle a fraud case alleging that it took too many liberties in how it promoted its drugs, and Forbes notes a high-profile name mentioned in court documents: Dr. Drew Pinsky. Prosecutors said Glaxo paid Dr. Drew $275,000 over two months in 1999 to talk about Wellbutrin SR, an antidepressant, "in settings where it did not appear Dr. Pinsky was speaking for GSK."
    Dr. Drew did so, as a transcript from a radio show he appeared on at the time makes clear. He said he used Wellbutrin with his own patients because it had fewer side effects than its rivals. The FDA hadn't given Glaxo permission to make that claim, however, and thus "the spot is almost a textbook for the way drug companies have used speakers to promote medicines," writes Matthew Herper. "Everything Pinksy says is reasonable—anecdotally, Wellbutrin does seem to have few sexual side effects. But Pinsky’s comments (have) the effect of giving air time to a use of a medicine that Glaxo was not supposed to promote." Click for more, including a transcript of that radio appearanc

    They don't make money off of the mentally ill by taking their patient's struggles public in contrived and truncated "therapy".

    this makes him a dirtbag. he can play the good doctor on those shows exploiting the weak, but doing paid drug pushing on the sly leaves no doubt of his integrity. anti-depressants, no less.

    who are all of Drew's patients who have died?
    I only watched a handful of episodes here & there - is there a list anywhere?
    My comments are based on my opinion only.

    Mindy's boyfriend was "murdered" last month and now she kills herself? Very Strange
    It is not medical advice or diagnosis.
