What do you see there.mass confussion .Strange side effects .Do you see anyone being cured?It looks like hell on earth.Why do they not ask there doctor these questions?Is this not the blind leading the blind.They could at least look it up in a desk refernce book.I can not make heads or tails of these drugs.I am 100% sure that they do not cure anything.There are many problems and unamswered questions about these drugs.Doctors go from one drug to the next.They used to think that speed was the cure for depression.Something is bad wrong here.What does the average person know about drug side effcts?Nothing!

 

Please? » Ron Jones

Ron,

>What do you see there (drug board).mass confussion .Strange side effects .Do you see anyone being cured?It looks like hell on earth.
<The drug board is for support, for sharing personal experiences with drugs, and for alerting people to certain problems and dangers, as well as benefits.

Doesn't sound like you feel it's helpful to you.
But that doesn't mean it's not helping others.

>>Is this not the blind leading the blind.
<<That's not the nicest way to put it....I'm not blind or stupid, as I infer from the use of that word, and others on this board most certainly are not. This is *not* a symposium filled with psychiatrists and medical experts, nor should anyone expect it to be.

>>What does the average person know about drug side effcts? Nothing!
<<Not accurate. I know you feel frustrated with the lack of total knowledge in this field. But could you take some care with your word choice, please, so as not to offend or put down others who read and participate on these boards.

Thank you for your time.

Susan

*quizzical look*

If you do not understand them, what makes you so sure they cannot *ever* be helpful?

Go ask Ace about the MAOI phenelzine (Nardil) and you will get a flood of positives.

Generally, if the first drug RX'd does the trick for someone they don't spend too much time around places like this.

Please don't exaggerate or overgeneralize or post anything that could lead others to feel put down. I've already asked you to be civil, so now I'm going to block you from posting for a week.
