In reply to long term effects from meds, posted by poser938 on April 24, 2012, at 11:23:25
Like you said, they don't know. Fact is, doctors don't know a helluva lot, and that is really not so shocking when one considers how incredibly complex a human being is. We'd like to think that they're experts, but their knowledge is really quite limited. So, along with not really understanding why their patients are depressed, etc. in the first place, they don't understand what the meds they prescribe really do, long or short term. I'm not criticizing doctors' lack of knowledge; I'm criticizing their lack of humility.
