They don't have mine either. I've heard a few times that until 1980, psychiatry didn't acknowledge that children could be clinically depressed.
:/ I'm under treatment for depression, obsession, and adjustment disorder,
and on two psychiatric medications currently. None have been of much help so far. My psychiatrist told me that electroshock is still being done. I'm interested in an experimental treatment that's "between" drug therapy and electroshock. It's called transcranial magnetic therapy and so far claims to be low risk. Anyone here know about it?
