I, for one, am glad for the medical profession and all of the diagnoses they specify and the medications that they prescribe. I think they prescribe medications because they work. In addition to lithium, etc., I am taking a medication for high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Thank goodness those are available to me, as my life would be shortened without them. I also see a doctor twice a year for a condition that I have. He will probably end up saving my life. The more we understand disorders and disabilities, the more specific they become.
