because we are in a percentage of people that they dont typically see its much easier for them (must be that high horse of a degree) to ignore that we are even here and make us all seem like liars. I dont know exactly what your going through since you had yours much longer, but i know that in the 7 months i had mine it was HELL ON EARTH and i didnt even see all the harm i had caused to the hubby and kids. (just from being unmotivated and cranky all the time) these doctors need to take this stuff way more seriously. what is it going to take to get the freaking side effects the truth written on that little brochure?
