> Am I missing something? are there in fact any really good a.d.'s from the great US of A. with proven longevity, low side effect profile, and no diet restrictions? which actually make you feel good to be alive?

> The French brought you Amineptine, Tianeptine,Amisulpride.Modafinal
> The Germans brought you Heroin( ok. it's banned but still popular), Tramadol.And aspirin. And chemicals that killed more than 6 million people by manufacturers who now provide beneficial materials.
If you take Ultram, you had better not take anything else. It interacts with so much its not funny.
> The Swiss provided an MAOI, where you don't drop dead, after a decent meal.
They also brought the first true SSRI in the 80s which killed people and was quickly pulled.
> The list goes on,
> If anyone knows of an Ace a.d. from the states, please advise.Yes, I agree this is going to go into the "magic pill" direction and there is none, but that doesn't mean a lack of hope please, etc, which we went into before, unless we change semantics.
There are palliatives that make people's lives much more functional and happy than they would have last century but happiness also comes from hard work that we all do more than anyone else.
And for that, a very good 2009 for everyone. Don't make resolutions unless you really like that angle, they can be a mixed bag. But do if you like. Just be you. :)
