Alexandra, I appreciate your contribution and you make several good points, however, you contradict yourself also, and in parts, seem to support my premise despite beginning your post with, "I'm not sure that that is correct." In particular, "While most medical conditions are fairly well understood (in the sense that we know where to look for the relevant mechanisms) we still haven't sorted that one out for a single psychiatric conditions(sic)."

I agree entirely with this statement. Eskielover captured very well the point I was trying to make.

p.s. Thx Momma. Nice to see you too. Here's hoping all's as well as can be.
