> europerep, did you manage to slip the yoke of guilt? :-)
Haha, I guess I prefer to distribute it rather than take it on me:
that university doctor who didn't even know, and refused to believe, that buprenorphine was used in treatment-resistant depression ---> idiot
that professor who told me they stopped prescribing MAOIs 20 years ago ---> not worthy of neither her MD nor her professorshipand so on...
Matter of fact though, these doctors *really* were idiots. I have had an email correspondence with a very friendly Harvard psychiatrist who I asked for advice based on a paper he published, and he was very nice and helpful. If I was actually being treated by him, or someone like him, I might well be feeling differently about the treatment and how it went.
Thus, in a way, I can be thankful for the fact that the doctors I have had were ignorant jerks ;-).
