> Many people on the meds board have tried many types of therapy, and are still experiencing distress or they have had success on meds before but they have 'pooped out' or given them side effects, that is why they are asking for advice on meds. I agree that psychological treatments can be very helpful, but medications can also be, especially if a person is too depressed to have the motivation use therapy properly, or if they are too anxious.
Sure. I agree 100%. I guess I just thought people were asking for help with their symptoms... But to get a variety of suggestions from a variety of different treatment modalities it seems that one must either post the question to a few different boards or post it over on social.How about a symptoms board Dr Bob?
A board for people wanting help with their symptoms despite treatment modality?
One thing that worries me about the current board divisions is that people may be led to think that one treatment modality precludes others. That was my bug with 'alternative' medicine rather than 'complimentry'.Oh well. It doesn't worry me particularly.
