And by calling the Psychology and Psychiatry professions false. I quote Tom:

"There is no such thing as a chemical imbalance."

"When you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that."

"People go for help, but their lives don't get better because of those [psychiatric] drugs. They get worse. They feel numb and they're told that's a good thing. It's how you degrade a society -- by drugging the piss out of it."

Then by trying to publicly make Matt Lauer out to be a dipshit for believing in that whole medical farce of Psychiatry and Psychology:

"You don't know the history of psychiatry. I do." (This is from a High School Dropout?!?!?!?!)

Then by publicly bashing Brooke Shields for actually talking about postpartum depression with shit like:

"The thing that I'm saying about Brooke is that there's misinformation, okay. And she doesn't understand the history of psychiatry. She-- she doesn't understand in the same way that you don't understand it."

"Here is a woman - and I care about Brooke Shields because I think she is incredibly talented - (but) you look at where has her career gone?"

"Well, you look at people. Look - is she happy? Is she really happy?"

Tom has done much more to effect career suicide than just overselling his love with Katie. He calls the entire medical profession of helping people's screwed-up minds a crock, and anywhere, especially in Hollywood, that dog just won't hunt.


I loved Brooke Shields come back to all that - "I think Tom Cruise should stick to fighting aliens and let women who are dealing with post partum depression deal with it however they see fit."

Don't ever pick a fight with Brooke Shields, especially when Brooke is taller than you.

And don't alienate women when women make up a huge part of your fanbase.
