> Yes, of course I'm referring to us here on this board as 'in the know', or anyone for that matter who has allowed great hope that we could be 'cured' as easily as taking a pill, and then had our hopes dashed. Also, remember Peter Kramer's 'Listening to Prozac' book that extolled the virtues of taking a pill to feel better than good? I happen to know a few people who took one course of prozac, zoloft, whatever, and it worked wonders for them. Then they went off and stayed well. I think their biochemistry is very different than mine or yours or anyone's that posts regularly to this board. I'm not sure what that difference is, but it makes me wonder if what we have will ever be cured by a pill. It makes me wonder if starting to take those pills was a bad idea in that now I doubt I can ever come off of them, even though I'm not near feeling 'cured'.
