> If we are to continue using psychological "evidence" (in the
form of HAMD testing and other such nonsense) we never
will have scientific evidence. Psychology is very much like
Philosophy-subjective, anecdotal, metaphysics. It does a
great disservice to those of us with genetically transferred,
biochemical, and PHIOLOGICAL (interesting post mortum
studies on depressed suicide victums-malformations in
prefrontal cortex and hippocanthus [spelling]) brain
disorders. When genetic markers, intracelular ADs, and
diagnostic blood tests come into play, then maybe we will see
scientific evidence. Until that time people will use the FDA as
there proof source for efficacy.......the most powerful
impediment to medical progress that ever existed.

I'd like discussion of the pros and cons of different types of
evidence -- and of the FDA -- to be redirected to
Psycho-Social-Babble, thanks.

Hi Dr. Bob,

I have a question regarding the above post:

Concerningt the findings of structural brain
changes in post-mortem studies of people when
were possibly schizophrenic, or had some other
mental illness.... is there a way to discriminate
or have the forensics discriminated between
those who had been taking drugs for a long time,
and those with mental illness who had not;
