If you are taking drugs for emotional problems, I would recommend psychotherapy (talk therapy) over the use of drugs.

I would never take a psychiatric drug.
Aeolosblue, I'm not sure you have proper information of what PD is and what it does to you as it progresses. You would never take a psychiatric drug? Well, maybe you should define what a psychiatric drug is to you. I believe everything from Valium to muscle relaxants and prescription sleep aids are psychiatric drugs, and believe me, everybody who's had PD for more than 10 years will need one or the other, whether or not.
I hate to take all the meds I'm taking, but without them I would not be able to sleep, talk, walk, eat or even breath. The choice is simple, ain't it?
