Antidepressants seemed to work a whole lot better in the 1980s.
I think the inclusion and exclusion criteria for accepting subjects into current clinical trials is so "flexible" as to make their results less relevant to me as a patient.
1970s and 1980s = 67% response rate
1990s to 2020s = 35% response rateJust a thought. The drugs that I take today with success were all available in 1996. That's when lamotrigine was approved. I was 36 at the time. I'm 62 now. It took all of that time to find tghe right combination at the right dosages. That's a hell of a thing to contemplate. 36. Young. An alternate timeline to be sure. I thank God that I can now die knowing that I was allowed time to know how to live.
How do you know who to trust?

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
