I'm worried about the standard advice of "medication" especially when decent therapy would help more ..
Also it surprises me that intelligent (?) (book learning)..individuals (doctors) can (at times!)
fail to recognise the fact that "patients" are more likely to be "compliant" if treated with dignity and respect ..
Or rather, it used to surprise me
I was prescribed seroquel. I am not psychotic

A life time on "medication" can do serious harm
Perhaps if more doctors had time or desire to listen to their patients, fewer people would be lumped into "medication for life"
Not that good therapy is easy to find here anyway
