You're absolutely right! This is a problem of the language, normally I
speak German, sure I know English, but with some diffucult words
like they are used in that thread, it may happen, that I mix up some-
thing. That happened this time exactly! I'm so sorry! I tought the
problem is about treatment of depression, for these cases, I'm sure
my (and your) information will be helpful.
It's the same with the description of jobs: Here in my country, the
psycho-therapists had a study of medicine at the university, they
are allowed to prescribe meds. In USA, for this job seemed to be
used another word...
Next time, when I gonna write a follow-up-article, i'll gonna use a
dictionary...::--)))
Well sorry once more, and I hope, the person, which started the
thread can get some really useful help now!
