Hey fb,
sorry i was a little harsh!
i agree there are good doctors out there.. The one i first saw when i took nardil. I was like "lithium orotate ive read might help stability" and he said allright but send me some links first and i will do some research to make sure its safe. He s not perfect, he has sort of let me down one time and i was very angry at this, but this lithium orotate thing shows hes a cool guy. One who listens and cares.

Listening to the patient and trying to understand him should not be that hard. If you ask me its a certain batch of people who strive to have a position of power. Of course not every doctor is driven by these motives, but from my experience, the majority is.

Well im not in the US right now so i dont have the option to go to the US guy.

Thanks for the tips, i too have thought about doing this.. The next country would be belgium, like a 4 hour drive. It would be a little pricey for me to get on the train every time and i dont think german insurance pays for visits to a belgium doctor. It would be pretty sweet though.

I got one order on the way already. Im not 100% sure about this one but it should come, it seemed pretty legit and ships from within the EU.
And my neighbour just told me she knows people in belgium.
One of them might be able to get it OR i have found another website that ships and appears to be legit, but it wouldnt make it through german customs. Id send it via that website to one of the folks in belgium then.

All i know is i will get it.. more than ready to take extreme measures. Ive had enough.

I hear you, i really do and i will try to find a doctor that doesnt have narcissistic tendencies AND is willing to help me with the nardil, but i need relief and i need it now. With or without doc.

Thanks for your support and concern, i really appreciate it. BTW My alter ego "caring pdoc" upped Wellbutrin to 375 and kicked venlafaxine out.

Peace
