I may have been too harsh. There are good and bad doctors. Just like any profession some are very skilled and some are not.
I guess I was trying to say that this forum is a good place to get a good cross section of ideas about what works and what may not work.
The actual treatment should be handled by an experienced and skilled Psychiatrist or Psychologist.
Boy, that's the truth! My 31 yr. experience with psychologists, psychiatrists, etc. has been pathetic, and I agree with Hensley---I would trust the opinion of someone who is going through this, or who has been through it, a lot more than I would the "professionals".
Good luck getting the answers that you're looking for. There are a lot of smart people on this forum, people who know exactly what you feel like. Hang in there, things will get better.
I'm sorry the Psychologist did not respond to your post.
I'm not sure if I have ever seen them respond on this board before.
Anyway, if you have any questions just post them. There are plenty of experience people here on the depression forum that will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
You will probably get a more accurate answer from an experienced depression sufferer than a doctor anyway.
Thanks.
