“My wife is a divine being. And he was in a terrible, terrible, terrible state of mind. And I said to the person I had been speaking to, where on earth would he get prescriptions for so many incredibly powerful, dangerous, mind-altering drugs, including some that are known to have powerful suicidal ideation effects? And I was told that he was a patient of a psychiatrist in a medium-sized city in South Carolina who follows her patients by talking to them online three or four times, three or four minutes, every three or four months. And this person is prescribing life or death medication.”
