In reply to Calling Dysthymics---Update, posted by shar on December 5, 2000, at 9:53:15
>Shar - for what it's worth I saw my pdoc today and told him of your diagnosis and prognosis. His opinion is that depressions take people through alot of different stages to the fact that yours has elements (as does mine he says) of dysthymia doesn't alter that you're really treating major depression. He also thought it outrageous that anyone would give you such a grim prognosis. Good luck with the new doc. ksvt
Well, I was able to locate another really good dr. (supposed to be good, recommended by my therapist) and will try to see him for a third opinion. I feel much better "armed" going in with the information you all have shared and looking around the internet myself as well.
