So you would say these meds are safe to take for perhaps 1-5 years and probably longer?
You would take them yourself if you felt it necessary?

Well, I have a degree in Sociology and not a medical field but I can read studies and get things from the data.
I know it might be naieve of me but I figured that if it causes damage at 10 times the therapeutic dose, this would cause problems for
all people over time....
I figure taking it long enough would yield the same damage.
True, False, or Sort of?

Can you point out exactly which parts are wrong? Is this Tracy doctor just reaching for book sales? That was an abstract from her book.
According to her, more than one researcher has found these things to be true. A total fabrication?

I am. I just didn't know if I ought to try Therapy alone or take an SSRI and see what happens. Already tried Paxil and it really didn't
work. Was considering Zoloft.
