Lamdage22,
See below for my responses to what you've written.
> So if you think you are the wiser man here, im gonna have to say that i NEVER had psychosis (or an apparent need for antipsychotics) prior to going to the psychiatrist.

> Unlike you.Actually, if you're addressing me, what you're saying is incorrect. I too never experienced psychotic symptoms prior to seeing a psychiatrist, but my anergic depression was, as I said, seriously disrupting my life at that point and was in need of treatment. Considering this, I don't regret my decision to present for psychiatric treatment of my anergic depression. Again, I don't think that I would have decided to take the medications if I had known *in advance* how little they would help and the extent to which my condition would worsen in the long run, but given the fact that I couldn't have known in advance what effect the medications might have on me, I don't regret having taken the chances that I did.
> You would see things a little differently if you had my history. Believe me.Maybe I would, but for the reasons I've stated, I basically feel the same way Linkadge feels on this issue. And I'm not saying that it's impossible that Nardil might have had something to do with your psychosis. Some medications that I took also might have had something to do with the psychosis that's now part of my condition, but it was *I* who decided to take the medications in question, and I take responsibility for that decision.
