Other forums?

In one of the posts I read today, someone refered to several other psyhc forums. Now I can't find the post! Does anyone else remember the post or know of the other forums. I'm going crazy re-reading all the posts!
Thanx

I think Yahoo has some also. And your local craigslist.com.

None compare to pscyhobabble. But I find it helpful to view the patterns of success and failures at other forums.

Other helpful places are askapatient.com, revolutionhealth.com, and patientslikeme.com. These are not forums. They are places where patients rate their meds and comment on them. So you can get a good idea of the most common side effects people get, the weird rare side effects, what success stories look like, what failures look like, and an overall rating on a 1-5 scale for each med. You can't do a back-and-forth conversation with anyone, but you can read their tales.

Crazy Meds has a great sense of humour and is very encouraging, particularly for people who doubt the value of taking meds.

However, some of the drug info seems dubious and unscientific. It seems more anecdotal and speculative in places.
