Hi Gang,
I am a treatment professional (medication, nutritional supplements and psychotherapy BUT
I'm also a long-term sufferer of Major Deepression and Dysthymia AND "treatment resistant" Chronic Classical Migraine. I'm a mess (from time to time) just like many other PB's. Please don't dismiss me because I happen to be psychologist - I suffer in the same (similiar) ways that most "treatment resistant" folk do. I've been 'misled' by various other health professionals and have worked out what's (reasonably) good FOR ME. I'm painfully aware of the difficulties of some patients who didn't respond to their pdocs 'favourite first-line meds. I'm not just sympathetic on these issues, I'm EMPATHETIC - I've suffered for 2 decades withe Mood Disorders, accompanying anxiety, insomnia, anergia, anhedonia and so on.Sorry, I'm rambling ...
