> Well, for somebody who has been miraculously and gloriously affected by the workings of these drugs, it doesn't seem like you have had any form of sustained efficacy from any one drug. You're periodically talking about how things aren't working for you the way they once did, and how your brain has adapted to the effects of many of the medications you take. It just seems to me that when you feel good, you start to jump into this "idealization mode" where you seem to overassert the efficacy of these meds and the extent to which modern psychiatry can help any one individual. When you're not feeling so hot, it seems that you start to doubt the overall utility of many of these meds and talk in (what appears to me) to be a more grounded mannor about the benifits and drawbacks of meds. On the one hand you unequivically and liberally advocate the use of the genotoxic TCA's and on the other you write posts that makes me think you are concerned about the possable genetic dammage that you yourself may have sustained.
I don't know where this ideology about TCAs being any more cancer causing than other newer antidepressants haven't had years of use and articles written about possible new finds in lab rats.Second of all, would you rather have someone commit suicide, or possibly have a nth degree risk of cancer later in life?
I can't see the logic in it.
