Tom CruiseFlips Out on TODAY SHOW - the whole anti-depressant issue

WHen did Tom Cruise go to medical school? Wish I saw the interview and Matt Lauer's reaction. This whole issue with Tom making these judgements bothers me because I was once on anti-depressants during a very dark time in my life - with therapy, it helped me through a lot of shit.

Tom Cruise debates Matt Lauer on use of anti-depressants


NEW YORK Tom Cruise was all smiles talking about his movie and his fiancee on N-B-C's "Today" show, but the smile disappeared when Matt Lauer mentioned Cruise's earlier criticism of Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants.

Cruise got very serious and kept saying "Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt" every time Lauer said he knew people who were helped by anti-depressants.

Shields took them for her post-partum depression. As a Scientologist, Cruise doesn't believe in those kinds of drugs or therapy of any kind.

At one point Cruise told Lauer, "you're glib" and didn't know what he was talking about. Cruise added, "you don't know the history of psychiatry, I do."

Tom recently fired his longtime publicist, who successfully kept the crazy away from the public's scrutiny. Who'd he replace him with? A family member, apparently. Savvy, Tom.

THANK YOU! He really should stick to acting. That way I can see less and less of him.

Poor Tom.

I'm afraid he's been brainwashed.

Who is he to get personal when criticizing the use of anti-depressants? Are we supposed to take medical advice from a guy who jumps up and down on Oprah's couch, declaring his love for a woman he practically just met?

I used to love him. And not in that "oh, Tom Cruise is so hot and I wanna do him" way. I mean, I really enjoyed watching his movies, I really enjoyed his acting. But all of this is making me not want to see his new movie. I've seen too much of him lately.

Something is off with him. It's like something is about to go down and he's trying to distract the public.

He's taking Miss Joey Potter down with him, too. Nice choice. Everyone can see through her fake smile and her horribly inarticulate quotes about Tom..."I really, like, love him, and I'm just so, like, happy to be with him, etc."...

Look, all fans of a guy who thinks blood transfusions are evil mocking another guy who objects against the overmedication that is going on. Do I smell the stench of religion around the corner?

Since Tom can play doctor so while I. (I don't mean that in the kinky sense.....well I kind of do)

I believe that Tom is BI-POLAR. His religion is not letting him take his medication that is why he is flippin' out.

I think he's definitely dealing with some mental issues. I watched the Oprah thing for the first time yesterday, and it was like he couldn't keep still. Oprah kept saying, "You're gone, you're gone..." meaning he was completely in love, but that's not how I read it. Oprah knows him, and she kept saying she'd never seen him like that before. He'd be extremely intense, and then hop down on the floor. The words seemed wooden, but the reactions out of control.

I finally watched it last week. At first it did'nt bother me as much but he kept doing it over and over again. It was nuts. I don't buy it.
