Very interesting info. Some of those graphs were the ones the Phelps shows in "Why am I Still Depressed?" Good to see the source of them. I was looking for them the other day.

One quarter! Nuts.

I'm kinda excited about the 50% a symptomatic thing though, I 'd be about 5% asymptotic so far haha, 50% sounds great

Cool article btw

Thanks for sharing that, Moose.
I like the authors' focus on syndrome based long term treatment rather than on symptom based short term treatment.
Some points that interested me included
- treatments potentially intensifying or exacerbating symptoms;
- when a polypharmacy approach has been largely ineffective, sometimes a removal of a medicine can result in the improvement of symptoms;
- the potential for some atypical antipsychotics to be effective for treating bipolar depression.

I wonder if my pdoc has read this article. She seems to be thinking more broadly lately.
