Thanks, very helpful post. I find sometimes myself in a dylemma-situation. I know about my disturbs and my reactions to meds more than my psychiatrist knows. But he knows about meds more than I know. Therefore I can't say for sure his suggestions are wrong and I'm condemned to take meds because *maybe* he knows better than me what could help in my case. The picture is complicated by the fact that a med that has certain effect in the first days may have other effects in the long term (or at least is what they say). Not to talk about placebo effect, nocebo effect, and so many variables that make me impossibile take a rational decision. If I have to trust my insticts I will throw away all the meds and live my life as it is. But, would this be rational ? Just don't know
