I also think the difficulty here and on other boards is a slanted view. This board is designed for the discussion of meds, but it certainly does not receive a great number of success postings. I don't think that means they don't exist.
While there are a number of people with wretched med histories, there are those who are indeed successful in finding good treatment. That being said, there is a LONG way to go.
Yes, I do think people improve their lives, but we are who we are and our level of satisfaction in what we perceive as "better" or "well" can sometimes not be achieved by the means we have at this time. Sometimes, you gotta take what you can get. For me, no treatment is not an option and I don't think I would be better off had I not sought treatment.
