Doc here / I always wonder why they call it GoLytely / it makes you go anything but lightly 😬😬😬💩💩💩💩

I take care of a lot of Native American patients, while I find the family closeness amazing I feel really sad that they are consumed by alcoholism and drugs. One lady told me when she was a kid her family sat in a circle in the evening passing around vodka including the kids, as a pastime - is that true ?

Also is it true that when a young Native graduates and leaves the reservation for a job "in the white man's land", the elders on the res are unhappy and ostracize the kid leading to suicide amongst young graduates ? Heard it might have to do with the lost government income to the village from the Feds when one member leaves ...

Thanks for your answers
