Lorne,
I venture to say you are nearing the line of what is constituted appropriate expression on dr-bob.org. Your last posting, addressed to me, I could take. But this one is more general, and takes a slap at anyone here who's shared his (or her) advice about medicine as well as his experiences with them.
Come on, buddy: you should know that how psychotrophic medicines work are hardly an exact science. Third-party experiences are as helpful as doctorly advice.
With regard to what sounds like a generally negative outlook on your part, I would say only that people go through hard times, and the words of others, even though they're "just" words, can be of supreme benefit. I say, talk all you want about the medicines you're taken, the guilt you feel, the agony, slips, falls, and recoveries you've endured -- as long as it's helping you win your battle against the demons that haunt you.
