It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The assumption that chemical imbalances are always the cause and behavior is always the effect is flawed. Habitual behavior, conditioning and experience have a huge effect on brain chemistry. Not surprising since the acknowledgement of this bi-directional relationship is anathema to pharmaceutical companies.I'm not that forgiving. Let me explain.
Live is about impulse control, dealing with life events that shape our behavior and choices.
There have been a number of scientific studies that have concluded that a vast majority of people who have murdered do suffer from some kind of chemical imbalance or malformed parts of their brain. With that said, as humans we all have some kind of chemical imbalance or have not developed 100% perfectly. It is that which shapes our behavior, motor skills, etc.
The studies go on to say that sometimes life events serve as catalysts which then send the person down the path of sociopathic or psychopathic behavior.
Some people poo-poo the studies. I think there is some validity to them.
I think in AHs case, while he deserves to be locked up or face he death penalty because he is a threat to society, I think its important to understand why he is who is is (or was)

Going on 8...As a millenial I laughed pretty hard at this lol
I'm right on the edge as a millenial tho at 34.. I think the oldest millenial is 35
The can changes people. I mean even the mafia was okay with their associates having gay sex in the can, Im not suprised at all personallyI am blown away he had a gay prison lover. I am pretty sure my reaction to getting locked away wouldn't be to suck off Big Leroy....
Maybe this is a reason he felt he had a lot to prove....conjecture, but the story never really made sense anyway
There will be court procedures to determine whether the Pats have to pay (looks like they will have to do so) and who gets the money. I am sure as we speak someone is filing to be the administrator of Aaron Hernandez's probate estate (or executor, if he left a will). That person will be responsible for collecting any funds owed by the Pats (and from any other sources) and distributing the funds to Aaron Hernandez's creditors and heirs. Since he and his fiance were not married, I don't believe she has standing to inherit, although his daughter certainly does. The Lloyd family (and the other two murder victims, and perhaps even the "friend" supposedly shot in the face) will undoubtedly file claims against his estate as well. In most circumstances creditors get paid first, then the heirs get the rest. It would be in everyone's best interests for those involved to agree to a settlement where everybody gets a fair share. Unfortunately, because of the circumstances it's likely that there will be litigation for years (first with the Pats and then between the creditors and the heir(s)) and nobody seeing anything for a long time.The can changes people.

Just read that a lawyer wants the Pats to pay Lloyds mother the money that they owe hernandez. What do you all think of this, It would be a nice gesture but I dont think they are in anyway obligated to do this. Id rather see it go to Hernandez kid. Just because hes bad, does not make his kid or the mother bad

Daily Mail. Not the gold standard but not one to dismiss out of hand.The gay report wasn't real came from daily news
it actually started with Michele McPhee which EEI made it know to the gen pop during an interview with her,she had in a book(i believe)
i have a lot of dislike for the Calahan and Manihole show, but i quite wont call it KKK or 3rd Riech, they are a different class of assholes
I can't imagine he would out himself in a suicide note, not very thug-like. Not doubting he found some prison lovin' but I think that's something he would've taken to the grave.
For some, "take to the grave" just means "no one gets to know as long as I'm alive to be embarrassed".
I'm no lawyer but I don't think anyone will get what's left of the contract. Although the murder conviction is, in essence, thrown out as it was on appeal, he was convicted on gun charges in the second trial. Unless that was already appealed, that conviction will stand as he was convicted and is wasn't under appeal when he died.There will be court procedures to determine whether the Pats have to pay (looks like they will have to do so) and who gets the money.

Apparantly he had a sexual relationship with a high school buddy.I am blown away he had a gay prison lover. I am pretty sure my reaction to getting locked away wouldn't be to suck off Big Leroy....

The problem is that when drugs are taken, it simply temporarily changes the brain chemistry. Over time the body begins to rely on the drug and produces even less of the chemical in which they were deficient. Regardless of the accompanying behavioral therapy, it is assumed that reliance on the drug will continue. In essence, the way we use pharmaceuticals, behavioral therapy is intended to enhance the effectiveness of the drugs by gauging the effectiveness, tweaking the dosage and identifying and managing the side effects. In other words the two disciplines typically feed off one another.Not really, because antidepressants and antipsychotics are to my knowledge always prescribed in combination with behavioral therapy.
Every clinical trial since the 80s that I am aware of studied both in combination, and this duality has lone been well-known in the pharma industry. In fact their clinical trial data basically established the concept as fact, since there were control arms in many studies, with behavioral treatment used without drugs and drug treatment used without behavioral therapy. Neither worked as well alone in the cases I know about.
disclaimer: I used to work in the pharma industry in neuroscience, but I have been in academia for 11 years.
