...and here comes another one.
Before I start, I know this probably isn't what you had in mind but I just can't help suggesting it. It'd be soooo nice. Here goes:
How about a sort of "game" that's based on what meds are supposed to do what? You get this graphic of a human (make it look like Dr. Bob?). Then we get to click on meds & drag them onto the body. The days tick by & the "Bob's brain" indicators for dopamine, serotonin, NE, etc go up or down in response to the meds. Plus there's other little indicators for anxiety, depression, psychosis, suicidal ideation, etc. They all go up or down too, sometimes they go haywire for no apparent reason - some based on a bad mix of drugs, some are just random & we have to keep changing "Bob's meds" to continually try to stabilise him.
Fun game or what..? :)
I know what you're thinking Bob..! But you can't let those damn lawyers get in the way of fun.... ;)
The not so stupid aspect is that I think there really exists software that points out contra-indicated drugs, synergistic combos, etc. So some of the rules required to make the game work have already been turned into predicate calculus.
Hmm.....??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next suggestion:
How about everyone gets to vote on "Craziest Post of the Week". The winner gets little "nut" awards attached to their username for the next week - maybe they're cumulative..? ;)
If you're worried about upsetting the "winner", your system could always e-mail them, alerting them to the fact that they had won. They would then have to "accept the award" ie "click on this link" for it to become public. OK...????
:)
