Well, you asked "seriously, what is a bpii to do? To me that is easy. Think in the same way Dr Oz thinks....blend medicine and nature. My own experience has shown me that while meds are extremely potent extremely focused substances, the benefits of other earth-made substances is at least equal to or better than any of the meds.That includes a wide spectrum of approaches including food choices, minerals, vitamins, and phytomedicines (herbs with natural medicines in them). I like plants because they not only do what meds can do, or what meds can't do, but they offer a multitude of other health benefits apart in addition to the desired mechanism, all of which synergistically make the desired mechanism work even better.

The downside is the same as meds.....lots of things to experiment with and that is the only way to find out what works. Scientific studies and reports on the internet are meaningless because they cannot predict how a substance will perform in any particular person. The bright side is, they can and do work, they are healthy (prozac and friends aren't, sorry), and they can simultaneously work on other problems and symptoms as side effects.

What puzzles me, confounds me profoundly actually, is how someone will spend 10 years experimenting with potent chemicals, but they won't dare touch a plant. My guess is that is because of fear of the unknown, fear of not knowing where to start, fear of not having a prescription (as if a prescription somehow makes something valid or not). Fear of the unknown exists with meds too. So does the fear of not knowing where to start or what to do next. So I don't get it.

Anyway, what to do? Broaden your horizons. If someone thinks the only means of improvement is from something a doctor can guess at, they are very wrong and paying the price for that error every precious day that goes by.
