"Trial and error" is the main name of the game in mental health treatments. Human variability in our reactions to drugs/biologics is never uniform and sometimes quite divergent. Then, we try to do brains.

I'm still considering getting diagnosed (or not) despite having a now early 20s son on the spectrum and seeing all the flashing red light parallels. If I did this, the trick would be to find a therapist who knows what to do with people on the spectrum. And if i research that too much, it won't work. PubMed is a blessing for research ...just not for research on oneself!
