Very complex matter here.
It depends.
That's my opinion too.
A good psychiatrist/therapist who approaches issues as conservatively as possible, you mean.
Good luck with this.
Says who?
None can say that. It depends on the diagnosis whether or not testosterone is safer than SSRIs or antidepressants in general.
You cannot prescribe testosterone for eyeball cancer.
Accurate diagnosis. And this needs paraclinical examinations too.
That's just my opinion. If we are talking about more than TRT. Well tuned TRT. With constant bloodwork.
If low t is the primary cause,ofcourse.
Accurate diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations.
Me too. My other option is PCT. No fucking way.
I agree with this but I just want to leave this here:
Patient walks in the office.
Patient's primary complaints x y z. (These are symptoms we are talking here,since this is psychiatry related.)
CBT Is proposed.
Patient has no compliance.
"Yo bro me went to Dr.TOL and he did jack shit to help me. Phegget tranny lover TOL suggested this, this and that plus x number of meetings,and nu drogen. Also,he suggest take blood. Motherfucker I am sick as fuck and wanna die. Dr.TOL bad and want to take all my money through meetings. Dr.TOL scam doc."
Know what happens next? There you go:
Dr.TOL lives in a small city and news travel. It takes a decade to build a reputation and a minute to ruin it.
Soon, he will be unable to feed his ectopic.
Not to mention the 6 years of medicine plus 5 years of specialization for psychiatry. God knows what else.
Not to mention what it cost poor Dr.Tollie to finally have this fucking office.
Yo fuck this shit. Take that fluoxetine and come back in x time to see how you doing.
Nu worries. Take dis. It gon fix yerr ting.
Some trial and error might take place next,with different drugs and in the end......
Everyone is happy. Patient is happy. Dr.TOL is the shit. More patients come, Dr.TOL cashes.
Dr.TOL attempts to get his wife conceive an actual,non ectopic one now. Everyone is happy.
You gotta live somehow.
Dr.TOL suggested conservative approaches and attempted to correct diagnose..but hillbilly Karen didn't dig. Karen wanted trenbolone fast results.
Bitch you could have done it with primo. Fuck you. But no. She wanted le trenbolòn that helped her friend who had it prescribed by Dr.Prescription piss easy,no questions asked.
I mean...in the end of the day,why not behead her? No face no case.
You can't have symptoms, if you've got no head.
If we don't talk conservative,let's do it proper.
I don't half ass.
What's giving me hope is that I am under the impression that more and more people every year,show more and more compliance to proposed approaches which are in many cases.. conservative.
However,make no mistake. There are serious conditions that need pharmacologic treatment asap.
Schizophrenia. Bipolar disorders.
Correct diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations still.
This is more or less right. But know that in some cases... Prosthetic limb is the way. The only way.
You can try amputating your leg.
Crutches won't cut it.
Generally,there are specific guidelines for drugs.
And everyone shits on these guidelines. Sadly,in many,if not half of the cases,it's the physicians.
Strict psychiatry talk here.
I am guilty of this myself. I am on 1mg of xanax I don't even need now. I need to force myself to sleep in order to be in the university super fucking sharp tomorrow.
I have fucked the alprazolam guidelines in the ass. Over and over. At least I did it on me.
Insomnia.
I am not hating on anyone. I am not perfect. Far from perfect.
Correct diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations.
Ah yes now I saw this. Let's just put the blame on the xannies.
True.
Correct diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations.
None knows if it is the wrong approach or not otherwise. This is a dangerous generalization.
It does. Just not always. Sometimes it doesn't at all.
Sometimes it is the only solution. I am excluding Dr.TOL example.
It is not only a wrong move...but one indicative of an ongoing pathologic pattern.
Very relative. It depends on many things.
Correct diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations.
Type of SSRI,or any other med. Individual response. Presence of other diseases. What kind of diseases. Medical History of the patient.
Yes. As far as I am aware. I am not sure.
Absolutely. I am all for people being happy and safe too.
Testosterone is not a cure for everything.
It depends.
Correct diagnosis. Paraclinical examinations.
Any study even if it's a good or bullshit one,I would like to see it. I am unaware of this.
This will occur only if misprescribed as a result of misdiagnosis. As a result of half assing on the doctor's side or as a result of the doctor strictly thinking business.
It depends.
You can try some schizo and pills as a last resort.
Give that to the manic psychotic.
It will work great i am telling you.
He will feel totally natural.
In his natural habitat.
Ahahahaha good one wasn't it?
We need more doctors that love what they are doing and are still getting educated on it.
This is a profession that one has to study for a life time.
We also need more doctors that don't strictly think of this profession as money..and more money,pure business.
And finally more doctors that shut the fuck up and give the referral when being far from sure regarding how to deal with a patient's issue.
I am not a doctor and I am not playing doctor here.
What I am studying for is not an MD degree. Yet. I hope.
However my profession is very close.
