Hi! man, you make an excellent point,
that was a great post!! one thing that stood out is what you said about how many of the "walking wounded" do not have access to a pc.i can think of 3 friends and 2 close relatives right away!! i was speaking with a friend today, [college grad] who has tried every med available to him, and still suffers incredibly.
there are innumerable people who suffer in silence, or pray for ,[as my former pdoc so arrogantly puts it] the "magic bullet" to alleviate their suffering!!
it sux. this board is invaluable, i wish so many of my friends could or will come here, this is an excellent resource, and it does prove that contrary to what arrogant drug reps, and silly-*ssed commercials are touting, too many people are not getting adequate help!! [except Terry bradshaw, he seems to love his paxil].i hate to say that, and i may be getting a tad off-subject, but when these celebrities say what a wonderful recovery they have made on x-medication, we who still suffer seem to be frowned on, in my case, even by some family members!! anyhoo, i hope there is a med, or combo for everyone here that someday makes us well. until that time it is great to share with all the cool people here..john
