True enough; we cannot expect anyone to know everything.

But, this information was out since 2006.
And she was *insistent* that there was *no* medication that could be taken just for the seasons of SAD for treatment.

Indeed, she went on to say that it would be counterproductive, cuz, to take a med, and stop, and take it again, would cause the med to stop working.

This is the exact opposite of what the FDA has approved Wellbutrin XL for. It's only to be taken for SAD during the winter months, and then stopped!

So, she didn't know something, and went on telling complete stories about that which she didn't know.

Wouldn't it have been better for her to just say, "I'm not aware of any med for that purpose." Or, "I don't know." When a kiddie asks me a question at school that I don't know, I have *no* problem saying, "I don't know." Because it *is* impossible for anyone of us to know all.

What I'm upset about is that she didn't know, but, made it out *as if* she DID know.
In short, isn't that dishonest?
Feels like it to me, anyway.

Some people just cannot get past their pride to say, "I don't know." And what problems that causes.

I'm printing this out and sending it to her.

I probably gave you more of my thoughts than you ever asked for or wanted, huh???

Shalom!
