ATCA (Anti-Tom Cruise Alliance)

So I've been hearing mixed reports on whether or not TomKat
has been euthanized. Well, no offence but Katie...seriously,
you would be doing yourself a favor. Tom Cruise is ridiculous.
Personally, I had a lot more respect for him before he started
doing these interviews. I have nothing against Scientology
(though I do find it a little strange that anyone would subscribe
to a religion or lifestyle based on anything written by
L. Ron Hubbard *smokingun.com*. That said, to each their own,
clearly it's not for me, but hey Judaism is not for everyone either).

However, when you are a celebrity, I feel like you have a
certain responsibility, even if you didn't ask for it.
The Tom Cruise statement regarding Postpartum Depression (PPD)
continues to annoy me. Sorry, I must have missed an episode
of Tom Cruise, MD. Seriously though Tom, when did you get a
medical degree. It wouldn't shock me if both you and Bill Frist
graduated from the same class. It's fine to do your psychological
profiling (otherwise known as Scientology) but it's is another
thing to tell the American public they don't need drugs to
treat what, in some cases, is a life threatening illness.

"When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today, women,
and what you do is you use vitamins. There is a hormonal
thing that is going on, scientifically, you can prove that.
But when you talk about emotional, chemical
imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.
"You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things."

Oprah, maybe it's time to release that outtake of Cruise
falling off your sofa and landing headfirst in the audience!
Does that quote even make sense? Tom, are you saying,
that we should treat PPD with Centrum?
Perhaps 1 A Day is a better choice. Hormones which trigger
emotions can be classified as neurological, no?
So you are telling me there is no science behind a
neurological disorder? Please! PPD is recognized by the
American Psychiatric Association, the National Mental
Health Association and the National Institute of Mental Health
as a very real, very serious disease. A disease which, occurs in
15%-20% of pregnant women. Out of that figure 15% are
categorized as seriously depressed (many of which
will or have attempted suicide). So how dare you get on TV
and start telling people that these things can be cured with
some stupid GNC multivitamin.

It's true that America is highly over medicated. It's
true that not every situation warrants a medication.
However, this is also a very real very serious disease
and I will leave it to the professionals to diagnose and
prescribe medications to those who are in fact suffering from it.

Your responsibility Tom, is to keep your mouth shut.
For someone who asks not be judged based on his religion,
you are doing a lot of finger pointing in the medical realm.
God forbid Katie uses and epidural! I know most of you
have heard this before but I cannot even stand to watch one
of his movies anymore. Like I said before being a celebrity
means assuming some responsibility. Albeit, viewers
have a responsibility to weed out foolish comments by
deranged celebrities, but what about those who are not as educated?
What about those who treat the celeb word as Gospel?
It's silly, I know, but not everyone knows better and
you can been endangering those people with your dumbass comments.
People who live in glass UFOs should not throw stones.
