Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, and Anna Nicole Smith:
By: Brian Green    Saturday, Aug 29, 2009
Topic: Addiction and Abuse - Treatment and Healing
Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, and Anna Nicole Smith: Death is the Prescription, how many more? Prescription drug abuse, which I term medical drug addiction, like all addictions including alcoholism, (addiction to ethyl alcohol), though more widely recognized nowadays, is still not widely understood. And of course, combining the abuse of prescription drugs, (obtained legally or not), with “street drugs”, maybe adding alcohol to the mix, though highly dangerous is commonplace too.

By: Brian Green    Friday, Aug 28, 2009
The Conscious And Subconscious Mind: Influence, Persuasion & Change For Healing With Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy.

He only saw it as a negative, a swamp of primitive drives and aggressive impulses. Perhaps his was.
