He doesn't practice in my area, so I can't go see him. My psychiatrist said it worked for about 50% of her patients that tried it. I went to a homeopathic doctor, but he didn't want to work with me while I was trying other meds because he wouldn't be able to tell what's doing what. So now I'm trying to decide what to do next. It's hard to make decisions when you're depressed and everything seems hopeless.

He doesn't want me to give up anything I might be on at the time I start treatment, he just doesn't want me making changes in meds or trying other new treatments at the same time. That makes sense to me because as I understand it you need to be able to notice any changes that the homeopathy might be causing. If you're also making changes to your meds you won't know if it's a side effect of the meds or the homeopathy. So right now it's homeopathy or strattera. I'm going to go look for a coin to flip.
