SF Bay Area members -- visit with Dr. Schatzberg

Dr. Alan Schatzberg, chairman of the department of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Stanford University School of Medicine, is one of those research psychiatrists who do not believe that discontinuation syndrome can last beyond a few weeks.

Would you like to visit with Dr. Schatzberg to educate him?

If there are any San Francisco Bay area long-term discontinuation sufferers who would like to do this with me, just drop me mail and I'll try to make it happen. I don't know if he sees patients but I might be able to pull off making an appointment.

Their fees generally are about $400 per hour. I would pay for this.

I'll be happy to drive. I have room in my car for four more people.

Altostrata, I think that's a wonderful thing you are doing. If I were in your area I'd love to go. *if i could get my agoraphobic butt outta the house* I'm sure you'll take plenty of info to educate him. Please let us know how it goes!
