Hands down, but with many qualifiers, LSD + guided psychotherapy for certain major depressive disorders (the kind we used to call "reactive").
As for listing 10, it really depends upon diagnosis, but I'd include clozapine, lithium carbonate, opiates, dexadrine, thioridazine (with frequent heart monitoring), tranylcypromine, venlafaxine, amitriptyline, & MDMA.
Controversial? Yes!
Powerful? Definitely!
Would I use them clinically? Not all.- Cam
