Dr Bob,
What are your thoughts on using opiates for depresion?
I have had some really bad experiences with
psychiatrists and psychotherapists (never discussing the use of opiates with them) but
with being prescribed other drugs where if I wasnt on top of my own medical history and we all know when your depressed its easy to just go along
with the docs, I could have had some serious
liver problems, some docs prescribe stuff and dont even know your medical history. They look at
opiates as "taboo", almost like they just want you
to come back and back for that weekly money they
get from you while putting you on stuff that takes months to see if it works. I think this country needs to do a complete change on psychiatry and get away from the pharmacuetical companies and what their coming out with next.
I agree with some to take it into their own hands
to find their own solution. Especially after the experience I have had in the psychiatric world.
Wasting thousands of dollars and, mostly, time of
MY life.
