In reply to opiates and major depression, posted by androog on October 16, 2001, at 16:49:58
I know there is research going on at UCLA with opiate use in treatment resistant depression and anxiety disorders; unfortunately I don't know about the U of Chicago, but it certainly is worth a call to the Dept of Psychiatry and see if there are any clinician/researchers who use it in treatment. Sometimes the 'older' shrinks are more liberal in prescribing it. If you are unable to find a shrink then do a search on the net- there are pharmacies (Pill Box) and physicians who actually make house calls and prescribe opiates for 'pain'. I don't advocate lying but I do find it preferable to suicide. Take care, Judy
