Was she a drug addict while serving in Starfleet?
Only she knows. She seems unstable to me.
Got it. So you have no proof at all about what kind of Starfleet officer she was. You’re only making a judgment about her based on her life after she was drummed out. Did it ever occur to you that she started down a path of substance abuse precisely because she lost her job, which has nothing to do with her conduct while she was still serving? Losing your job is a huge depression factor, not to mention the resentfulness toward the man who was responsible for it. And as we see in season 2, after she was reinstated she was just fine. They even gave her a ship to command. Looks like an exemplary Starfleet officer to me.
And I’m not sure why you have such a hardon for Riker, as if he’s some paragon of Starfleet virtue. The admiralty was pissed at him for continuing to decline commands, and he covered up Pressman’s illegal cloaking device.
She’s so unstable, if she were a Warp Core we’d be abandoning ship.
Didn’t unfunny jokes get you banned?
Only temporarily, unfortunately. Message not received.
Some of these comments are, at best, in poor taste.
The way some of you are speaking of, an admittedly fictional character's, mental health and addiction is with such a lack of empathy, such disdain, that it really does make me wonder for how they treat people in the real world who don't fit their ideal.
Need to take a long look at yourselves and how your comments may affect others on the board.

It makes me very concerned a lot of the times.
We all have choice.
I would bet that the people making these comments aren't making them because that's how they really feel. I'm pretty certain they're just doing it for some sort of shock value. Treat it like what it is: a cry for attention. And if it gets the attention of the mods, all the better.
For what purpose? Attention seeking behavior still indicates a need.
We're not therapists.
This isn't a therapist point of view. This is a behaviorist's point of view. What purpose does the behavior serve?
You tell me.
That is just sad now, isn't it.
Agreed about it getting the Mods attention. I'll take the telling off for this but callous language and behavior for the sake of getting attention and making a stink deserves banning and being told to go away and educate yourself rather than acting like a prick
Hazarding a guess I would say that they are uncomfortable with the current emotion and need validation.
