Idk...things like that make me uneasy. Maybe because the hospital I was at seemed to think that unless your problem was a neurotransmitter issue, then there was nothing wrong with you! I think it might help those who tested positive (reduce stigma - simple biochemical problem like low thyroid etc), but say that you had all the symptoms of depression or OCD or sz yet tested negative, and the docs just told you it was 'all in your head' like psychosomatic disorders and your very real symptoms were dismissed. I actually think that a huge chunk of psych patients would test negative for stuff like that. I'm not convinced about the neurotransmitter stuff anymore (I think I've been gradually becoming increasingly skeptical about the science of psychiatry & MI)
