hmmmm
depends on what you mean by 'smarter'.
they would probably beat me at the GRE anyday of the week...
or the intelligence tests even (but i bet they get to play with 'em more than me - no fair!)
i don't really know the first thing about medication so i guess i trust their judgement on that (because i'm too lazy to study it myself)
but even if i did study it myself they'd still have years on me...
and thus if i disagreed it would hinge on WHY they thought as they did (and their reasons for that) and WHY I thought as I did (and my reasons for that) and so is somebody neglecting an important piece of information or something?its not really about 'smarter than'
but i do take what they have to say with a grain of salt
(or a whole shaker)
;-)
but then if i believed everything they told me...:-(
i guess what i find tricky sometimes...
is people on the meds board...
whose p-doc tells them to do one thing...
and they proceed to do something different without informing their p-doc of that first.because...
there could be a reason why that is not a good idea. a reason that people don't know because they haven't formally learned the relevant information (and thus might miss something relevant).
but i don't know...
i don't know much about medications...
except...
that they don't seem to do a lot for me.
