> Never been to AA! Never b een addicted to anything! Maybe opiates were used for depression in the 50s! People used to smoke cigarettes in the doctor office in the 50s also! So what..........
"So what"
Well Mr "Thats not how SSRI's work" i was simply explaining that the early 1900's were a dope fiends paradice, with Morphine, Laudanum, Cocaine available OTC in substantial doses, and were scripted to patients with affective disorders up till ~the 50's.
Listen dude, not everyone who has run the gamut of meds and Doc merry go round typical AD reguime seeking relief from their everyday psychic pain is 'chasing a high'-actually this expression often refers to smoking Heroin of foil,
I have taken:
-Codeine~300-400mgs
-DHC~240mgs
-MSIR~60-80mgs
-MSSR~100mgs
and found they sure did a number on a depressed mood, althought i didn't take them long enought to experience tolerance.
