Exactly. The issue of fear of meds is a big one with me, and my doc points it out all the time. She says I'll never get well if I don't take therapeutic doses. But I tell her I can't ever get to therapeutic doses because they either make me suicidally worse along the way or give me really bad side effects that are very crippling. I seem to get intense side effects even at miniscule doses, and side effects other people never get.
> Blueberry are you afraid of meds like I am . Always experience side effects when no one else does. So that the relief you feel when you go off them makes you feel much better psychologically and then it wears off and depression is back again? Love Phillipa
