Actually, i've always thought they SHOULD give
amphetamines or cocaine for depression-- they
just have to watch for addiction.

I am making sense. I'm saying that in instead of
listening to their drs. the patients who try alternatives are
- the unlucky ones
or
- the misdiagnosed
-
or
- those whose religion is against meds
or
- those who experiment because they can'
stand the side effect anymore;

It would be nice to see a study on how many who have taken the "alternative" route have succeeded.
