@Nick Re-Psychiatrist. Good point.  I simply don't know how well (if tall)
Lamtical that my current guy Noah Freedman prescribed is helping.  I do
know I feel pretty frustrated trying to see him on a weekly basis.  My
previuse doctor person (the happy pills doctor) . Dr. Lazarous it turned
out was  pretty rare these days. Because he, the Md, and Consolors and I
had pretty regular meetings. He and I met weekly. So we'd  say ok well
Geodon and wellbuturin didn't work, ok ok lets try some other things.
You do bring up a very good point that person I tried after that,
Neidheardt simply saying what issues were pretty quickly lead to me feeling
much less just...off.  I simply don't know if ranting and raving is just as
helpful as the fancy as anti-depressents.
