Lamdage I'm just sharing my journey of success. Hopefully it helps somebody else with new hope, new ideas.
What I have said came from the doctors who healed me - not my own ideas. I think any doctor who can cure a 25 year chronic treatment resistant major depression bipolar patient, and they do that all day long every day with other people just like me and you, that kind of doctor is worth listening to very intently. Pretty much every patient they see is like you and me and Scott and Link and everyone else here. Same stuff. Same symptoms. Same complaints. Same drugs. Just different names.
I would not, on the other hand, listen very intently to any doctor who has been treating a patient for 10 years and not making major progress in all that time.
