My point is there will always be a new ailment and a new drug. Remember when SSRIs got black boxed? I just can’t get past the “we don’t know how it works” thing.
At this point, I trust what works immediately and that has science backing up its pharmacological actions.
PS - I love the word myriad. It was the first intelligent spelling word I learned. Will never forget it. |
Whilst the chemical actions of most meds are more or less understood, I'm not sure that anyone is yet fully on top of how
any of the mentioned drugs known chemical effects directly translate into psychiatric effects across all patients - psych meds are used based upon empirical observation & theoretical analysis. The exact mechanics of brain function relating to mood disorder are not yet understood to the same level as say, treating a cut or a burn.
Myriad is a lovely word.
