Somebody told me a little bit." Lauer — who sparred with Cruise in 2005 ...

Some film-world blogs have suggested this statement - provoked apparently by Cruise's criticisms of Brooke Shields's use of prescribed ...

Like all of medicine, psychiatric knowledge is far from perfect. However, despite side effects the discovery of antipsychotic medications helped free millions of patients from unrelenting hallucinations and from long ...
