FAA has generated a revised policy to permit the use of SINGLE
anti-depressant drug prescriptions for pilots. Suicidal ideation,
multi-drugs, etc., are disqualifying.

This ought to be of particular interest to some users of this group??

sigh Eliminates me but I can still lie like I did the first time!

Now I find that Prozac makes me a fairly pleasant individual. I take
a measly 600mg lithium however I'm usually pretty "up", but that's
more a state I developed after years of conditioning. In other words,
LOL, misery.

Its really less about how we got this way, and more about who we're
going to become spirochetes rapidly spreading across the world,
causing people to act bipolar.

Define "anti-depressant drug". Drugs that are classically labelled as
anti-depressant are frequently used simply to treat various forms of
neuropathy (disease of peripheral nerve(s) causing a level of pain or
discomfort). No depression involved anywhere. The neuropathy is
often mild in nature and has absolutely no effect whatsoever on the
ability to safely pilot an aircraft (especially when the "anti-
neuropathy drug" is taken). Drugs don't know what they are supposed
to be "for". They are just chemical compounds with labels we give
them.

Apparently Prozac can cause one to repeat word-for-word a prior
posting, all the while making no sense whatsoever as a reply to a new
post. Interesting.

'Fraid you'll need to look over the FAA website for that level of detail...

If a beehive is agitated, you'll have a mess on your hands. You're
probably gonna get stung, so call in the professionals. They dress in
white and methodically approach the hive. Then, they blow smoke up
the bees ass, which calms them down. Now you can handle the
situation. This is how mental health works. *******Mark of the

Some drugs are themselves prohibited because of side effects that may
interfere with flying. The reason for prescribing them is irrelevant in such
cases, as it is the use of the drug itself to which the FAA objects.

The FAA might also object to the condition being treated, but prohibitions on
specific conditions are independent of prohibitions on the medications
themselves. Either of these, or both, may interfere with obtaining a medical
certification.

Yes, weird. Also, since I'm Mark, blueriverDAY, and that
poster is Mark, blueriverGAY, then it's pretty safe to assume
the coincidence isn't accidental.

The homoerotic motivation of that bonafied idiot is
as transparent as glass, and obvious to the trained eye.

His inner conflict of self expectation verses his erotic
perverse desires towards men whom he's attracted to
leads to extreme self loathing and then cyberstalking
attacks on his object of lust. He seeks to eliminate the
source of his homosexual fantasy, hoping those feelings
will magically disappear.

In other words, he's a MAD FAGGOT.
