I thought it was interesting at the end, where the last woman finally improved after starting on a new anti-psychotic medication. The doctors think the med made the difference, but she doesn't. I see that with my son and me. I see a difference from meds. He seems to thinks that he's somehow managed to get control of his thoughts, and it's just a coincidence that happened when he was on medication.

I think about this, Costello. It's the same in bipolar where the meds are helping so people decide they are better and stop taking them and then relapse. It happens to a lot of people. That's why I think meds do help some people and there must be physical connection, but at the same time it doesn't help everyone.
