We always knew when she decided she "didn't need it." Unfortunatly she hasn't taken meds in the last few years. She also hasn't held a job or been in a stable relationship. I hear the highs and lows in her voice when she calls home, she can change in less than a day. But she still insists the doctors are wrong. Fortunatly I belong to a support group and can only hope she too finds the help she needs.B. A.

One over diagnoses turned out to be a prosaic nightmare. The woman nearly killed herself. Another woman did. Of course, no one will blame the doctor or the diagnosis...she got the full brunt of the blame and the uncertainty principle reigns. So? Talk about being careful...that's imperative when it comes to such things.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this.Carole Di Tostihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11831790843436160256noreply@blogger.com
