> I don't appreciate your harsh attitude against me because I work in the field. There are many things I don't agree with!! As far as I'm concerned they can throw the DSM out the window. That should of been revampt years ago, and maybe people wouldn't have to walk around for years not knowing what is wrong with them. I acutually diagnosed myself with mild bipolar. I come here offer help and advice and stress to people to educate themselves.
Yes, my attitude was harsh in disagreement but not intended to be harsh toward you personally.
For that I do apologize sincerely. I am happy to agree to disagree. I support you in your struggles and I hope you can do likewise. I've been diagnosed with many labels all across depression the spectrum but no one has yet to be successful in medicating me (even the bright minds at Mclean and MGH.) This has been since 1992. My next trial is by MAOI.More work needs to be done. We are on the cusp of great change and if the study helps to enlighten some then where is the harm? But there is much more to the story yet to be oncovered. I am obviously frustrated. I know you are too.
Best wishes to you and to us all. Maddie
