OOmis -“To the rest of the readers, please do not blindly accept at face value what any doctor tells you, and especially when it comes to mental health issues. There could be an underlying physiological reason for the apparent emotional disorder, and when THAT illness is treated, the depression could disappear. As soon as my mom was given hormone replacement for her non-functioning thyroid and adrenal glands, she was her old self overnight.
When someone truly DOES suffer from emotional illness that cannot be eased through cognitive or behavioral therapy, and medication is warranted, then unquestionably that is the route to go, or some combination of meds and therapy may be needed. This is not a lecture. It is my conclusion, drawn from experience. I thought this was a forum where one could express an opinion.”
Now compare this post to your original. Had you posted this in the beginning -I’d have no problem with it. This post you don’t come to any faulty conclusions on e/o in the medical field. You post your feelings based on an incident that happenned to you and you’re telling people to take heed. There was no reason to put down others in the medical field because of your story.
