Good wishes for you and your wife—it sounds like you’ve had a challenging journey.

Our journey trying one drug after another for years makes us much more sympathetic to all those struggling with mental illness, ofter living alone without a supportive spouse, who are _not_ stabilized and then get a letter like this one!

A severely depressed, possibly suicidal patient, or paranoid patient is not going to respond well to a letter like this! It would only serve to “validate” their view of the world a seen from their diseased mind.
