I agree completely but I also think that there are other medications that can do the same thing. Doxepin has done this for me when I was in really bad shape. The problem here is that my friend is in the U.K. and doesn't have access to a good psychiatrist, only a GP, who may or may not know much about psychotropic meds. Meanwhile my friend is in such bad shape. It's so frustrating knowing that he doesn't need to suffer like this. He sees the GP on Tuesday so hopefully this doctor will agree to prescribe something like Zyprexa for him. In the meantime, I'm trying to give him information on things to ask for.
I think I'm going to recommend that he take vitamin B3 (niacinamide,which has helped me in the past with anxiety) to tide him over until Tuesday. So infuriating that in this day and age someone has to go through this. GRRRRRR!
