Antacid Persuasive Speech
The burning sensation in your chest and throat. The sour taste in your mouth. The uncomfortable regurgitations. Once these symptoms hit, you know exactly what you're in for: painful heartburn and indigestion. Generally, these bouts of discomfort are associated with running to the medicine cabinet to grab some of those chalky antacid tablets in hope of some relief. By definition, antacids are just any substance that neutralizes the acid in your stomach, thus preventing acid reflux and heartburn. But what if I told you that relief could be found in your pantry or kitchen rather than the medicine cabinet? While many individuals rely solely on over-the-counter antacid medications, a growing number of people have started to realize the convenience

    I am enraged that you slaughtered me and my friends. You cannot use your rage caused by one person, Antinous, as a reason to strike hundreds of us down. Before you killed me, I was trying to tell you that the person incited this whole mess was Antinous. After you killed him, there was no need to turn your fury on the rest of us. The worst part is how you did not even intend for us to have means to fight back, your idea was to set us up so you could slaughter and torture us and we would have no means to respond or defend ourselves. In Addition, how could you have killed every single one of us if you have no firsthand account of what happened while you were away, all you knew was what Telemachus told you. You were so naive and enraged that you…

    Hello Jahmeelah, thank you for your post. The over-prescribing of opioids by licensed doctors which is the focus of your post, has caused a significant increase in the number of opioid addicts, overdoses, and deaths in recent years. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that opioid overdoses have quadrupled since 1999. They additionally report that there were 33,091 deaths in the United States in 2015 from legal and illicit opioids. Clearly, the opioid epidemic is a national emergency that has become a source of alarm for many individuals. Concerned citizens might ask, “Why has it taken so long to recognize this problem and take action?

    PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as the military combat, natural disasters, terrorism incidents, or any major tragedy. This is common in the life of veterans and is the leading cause of suicide among veterans. A VA patient who survived in Baghdad shares his experience with PTSD and explains how he knew he had this disability. Many veterans speak out about this issue and describe their continuous anger, alcohol addiction, and constantly wanted to fight. They usually feel very isolated and distant from their loved ones. One patient states, “PTSD involves rocketing into extreme states of stress re-activity; in the form of terror, rage, and uncontrollable impulses, and plunging into equally extreme states of being shut-down—exhaustion, emotional numbing, despair, and dissociation”. PTSD is about having fear and anxiety, allowing veterans to rage with anger and different emotion. There are many factors to PTSD, which affects others in different ways; or example, using video games to keep them occupied, spending money due to the lack of impulse control because of changes in their brain, and even not obtaining another job.…
