Generally though I was waking up very, very depressed in the morning and waiting for the opiate to take effect. I was in so much pain. Since I've done homeopathy, I don't wake up with that horrible depression in my chest. I am generally not subject to placebo effects so I do credit the homeopathy. And I wouldn't want to get into a discussion here about why it works, or doesn't work--you can probably guess why.

>Shelli,
I've thought about trying homeopathy. My therapist knows a psychiatrist that says it has worked better for his patients than traditional meds. He doesn't practice in my area, so I can't go see him. My psychiatrist said it worked for about 50% of her patients that tried it. I went to a homeopathic doctor, but he didn't want to work with me while I was trying other meds because he wouldn't be able to tell what's doing what. So now I'm trying to decide what to do next. It's hard to make decisions when you're depressed and everything seems hopeless.
