Psychiatric medication work no less well than medical meds. Sometimes you have to find the right med for the individual. I have treated thousands of people and could find the right med for most. But you’re right. This isn’t about meds. It’s about recognizing mental pain for what it is. I sent almost all of my patients for talk therapy. I personally do exercise for a debilitating arthritic disorder I have. Whatever works and is safe.

Thanks for adding this important piece.
