I never jumped (pun intended) on the Tom Cruise nutso band-wagon, but couldn’t resist this. Patricia is one of my favorite authors and I admire her greatly.

From The Australian:

BEST-selling crime author Patricia Cornwell has slapped Tom Cruise and Scientology for attacking psychology, saying their beliefs are dangerous. She takes particular issue with Cruise’s claims that mental illness is imaginary and that medication should not be used to treat such disorders. Cruise has criticised actor Brooke Shields for treating her post-natal depression with antidepressants. Cornwell, who studied psychology while researching her blockbuster mystery books, says: “There’s going to be some girl or boy who worships this megastar and decides not to take anti-depressants because Tom Cruise says no drugs are necessary.” It’s yet to be revealed what drugs Cruise was taking when he jumped about on Oprah Winfrey’s couch professing love for his now pregnant fiancee, Katie Holmes.
