What drug most effectively silences your 'inner critic'? I don't mean drugs that make you think that every little thing you do/say/create is great but something that allows you to 'postpone judgement' for a few hours while you're working. For the purpose of this question I don't care whether these drugs are legal/illegal or healthy/unhealthy. Personal experiences/anecdotes (positive AND negative) from (song)writers, designers, artists etc. are most welcome...

Assuming a woman has given up alcohol, to which she was strongly attached for 15 years, and has also given up cocaine and ecstasy (MDMA), which she used regularly, and she is now drink and drug free: could this past of substance-abuse affect her pregnancy in any way? And if so, what could she do to minimise the effects? For clarity: she's not pregnant at the moment, but would like to have a baby. [more inside]

Should I order Aricept from a Mexican pharmacy for my senile, old mother? The doc gave her a month's worth of free samples and, for the first time in years Mom seems much better. The thing is, at $165.00 per month the stuff is very pricey. I've found it on the web in Mexico for $125.00 per month. She's on a fixed income. I've pretty much exhausted avenues for additional aid. Would the feds show up at my door? Should I risk it?
