> Hi Deb. Boy we certainly can be a jaded & cynical bunch. I think because so many of us, like yourself, have had such disappointment with meds (&docs) that promise a magic bullet & deliver only more misery, we tend to be wary of (& justly so) something that appears to be to good to be True.(sorry for the lame attempt at humor). But I don't argue with success. If this particular regimine is working for you (for whatever reason) I congratulate you & thank you for sharing your story . Just like the "approved" meds & therapy, it may work for some & be a disaster for others. I would like to believe that the negative comments posted here are motivated by concerns that someone less "experienced" with this circus of mental health treatment, might jump at this without investigating it. Of course that is potentially a problem with any type treatment discussed on this list.

Thanks, kid! I admit I was getting rather down by this thread - even though i know i shouldn't take it "personally" - it's been a very long row to hoe, and I'm getting mighty tired. I really appreciate the encouragement. I get so frustrated, because the whole mental health thing seems like such a crap shoot. And if this doesn't work, what next?
