I've been on every class of medication, 21 I believe and plenty of nutritional supplements. Zip, nada, fugetaboutit(as we said in NJ/NY). Yes, there are plenty of mediocre and even incompetent psychiatrists out there, but there are also some very smart, savvy, cutting edge people who work their butts off to find the right cocktail that will do its magic. But everyone has a different biochemistry and there isn't a one size fits all prescription. I know because I'm so far out in the bipolar Universe, that I'm a minority of a minority. Maybe some alien race is searching for me or maybe I'm not from this solar system at all. I feel like that more and more.
