This is NYC - who talks to your neighbors?</blockquote> I take exception to this. While only from Upper Manhattan and not the current Crown Heights area I talk to a LOT of my neighbors. The relationships such as they are, have grown over time though. I would never just come on over to someone who yelled out at me from his doorway. </p> <p>I think you'll find that in NY, especially Brooklyn the best neighbors are those that talk to each other. If you don't, don't expect anyone to ever stand up for you and good luck every building a sense of community. That has nothing to do with not getting suckered into posting bail. There is also a big difference between talking to neighbors and inviting them to perform at your sister's house party. Or anything else she does. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/fort-greene-clinton-hill-bed-stuy/this-white-girl-needs-help-asap#post-761425 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 14:01:32 +0000 cez123 761425@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>I also moved to Crown Heights/Bed Stuy as a white, middle class, suburban woman, I'm just not an effing moron. </p> <p>1.

It makes you look as if you have "issues" as well.

Mental illnesses are often a chemical imbalance in the brain, often caused by an emotional, physical or other trauma. Pharmaceuticals can help address the chemical imbalance, but talk therapy with a trained psychologist can help address the emotional traumas that caused or are caused by the chemical imbalance.</p> <p>I don't understand how acupuncture works, but I have seen enough people helped by it to know that it works. I am not a scientist, doctor,therapist or acupuncturist, so I have to rely on what experts in these fields say. There is a large body of reputable professionals, whose judgment I trust, that give credence to western medicine, pshychology and acupuncture, as well as a range of other complementary therapies. </p> <p>I have much more scepticism about fields such as iridology and phrenology, but am prepared to keep an open mind in case some peer reviewed research shows they can actually fulfill their practitioners' claims.</p> <p>AW, you seem to be using the same arguments as Tom Cruise, who parrots what the Church of Scientology tells him. I'd rather listen to reputable medical professionals. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/fort-greene-clinton-hill-bed-stuy/this-white-girl-needs-help-asap#post-761380 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 08:44:44 +0000 whynot_31 761380@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>There has always been a need for prisons, and probably always will be....</p> <p>I think you are expecting therapy to be a magic wand, or a substitute for exclusion and punishment.
