Sorry, Stahrgeyzer - I didn't mean you. I meant my good therapist who suggested the medication for me, even though she's not my pdoc. She was a medical officer in the military, so I hear where she's coming from. It's just concerning to me when I try to explain how past psychiatrists already established that talk therapy is really all that I can do safely, without iatrogenically harming other areas.
What you brought up just reminded me of what suggestions I've had in the past by well-meaning psychiatrists (mostly interns being trained at the VA) and well-meaning psychotherapists. They want to make suggestions, but they often admit that they are just suggestions and nothing they are experts in.
I stuck with medical experts in areas concerning medicine is all I was saying.
