[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 86075, member: 14411"] I have no experience with it, it requires specialized training. It is frequently used for adhd in children and my area is adult psychotherapy and substance abuse treatment. My bias is that , too often, people are looking for some magic pill or cutting edge treatment, and that can be of help but more conventional treatments should be exhausted first. This thread discussed depression and that is a complicated issue. My approach would be CBT, combined with diet, moderate exercise, and meditation. If a client struggles with that, or is potentially suicidal, meds can be an adjunct. Direct discussion, face to face, with a licensed professional is needed in almost all cases. Internet forums are not the greatest place for mental health advice. JD is correct. Too many men would rather suffer alone than admit they need to get help. Some would rather die. Senseless, as depression is treatable, but a miracle cure ain't going to do it. [/QUOTE]
