Hi Ed, I sent a msg to your 'home' address yesterday, - -you sound like me, I so despertely wanted to be a psychiatrist, I wanted to die when I saw my anxiety would probably stop me. I'm in same situation, I'm look for a 'mediatory' position between a nurse and doctor, I had heard about the increasing role specialized nurses would have in perscribing meds, and I thought this was the next best thing to the highest calling. I'll find out what the options are - but if pharmacy works out, there's other things you could do, I went to the U.S> national anxiety conference, met a psychopharmacologist, I'm not sure exactly what he does, and i don't know the program, but he certainly deals with complex cases, anway, in my experience, opportunity and options are not the limiting factor:( I think once they can cure me they'll be able to cure everyone and they won't need pdocs anymore - but who knows, I talked to a physician tonight who said, he knew some young people who went through 'rough patches' like mine, and went on to go off meds and live a normal life, but I didn't find out what galaxy he was licensed in. kidding, who knows, Take care Ed, let me know if you got my other msg
