I guess I just don't understand how a person can go through their entire life always falling between the cracks of "modern medicine".

Psychiatry and psychology really isn't modern medicine....it's trial and error. What they do today in psych is like somebody knowing such and such an herb has such and such can cure headaches in some people. It's not refined they don't know what the actual problem is even in the cases where they know exactly what the medicine does. Sure the drug mods serotonin but there is no underlying issue with serotonin so what's up with that? In contrast if I gave you an antibiotic I could tell you exactly how it interfered with bacterial cell wall development killing the pathogen that's making you sick....that's modern medicine. Psych is at least fifty to a hundred years behind....now benefit of the doubt the brain is by far the most complex thing we've got going on....here's hoping they catch up...
