Why not make 'suburbs' to the city? Instead of just one for medications or whatever, divide it into something like this:
Psychobabble
GAD, etc
Anxiety meds
Xanax
Trifluoperazine
General Questions
etc.Depression, etc
Depression meds
ZoloftSide Effects
Or an FAQ of a different sort, where someone scans the messages, compiles a list of the FAQ's and posts them separately(sp)? Or just list the various types of psych meds, and have a different category for those that aren't but subscribed. It would be easier to search for a drug name (either chem or brand).
> I have in fact been wondering about dividing it again. But for some reason it doesn't seem so broke right now... In any case, one thing with doing it based on diagnosis is that some drugs are used for more than one diagnosis, so there might be a lot of overlap.
In that case, you could have a list of each drug name, and have posts directed that way.
