Thanks Jade.
Yes, I am really jaded about psychiatry. But if you think about it, what other field of medicine prescribes meds by 'trial and error'?
Imagine if docs said, uh, she has the symptoms of cancer, let's try radiation therapy and see if it works.
It sounds ridiculous. The brain is just too important of a body part to treat via trial and error....
I'll keep you posted. I just hope insurance pays for this.
