I had thought you were talking about the nicotine.

Yes, this is the first time that I have heard of a doctor assert with such confidence that a drug treatment would take 1 year to work such that he actually prescribes that way.
You know, it seems that VNS might take 6-12 months to work for some people with TRD. For the life of me, I don't know what motivated them to stay on it for so long without results. I guess once you spend $15,000 and accept having wires routed through your neck and a pulse-generator implanted in your chest, it's not such an easy decision to just quit.
