When your current symptoms outweigh (and only the patient can make this decision) any potential side effects - it's a non-issue. You will at least be determining the manner in which your quality of life is suffering. Control(by any means) lends itself to management - and that's what alot of people are after. Not a cure, management.
Our ability to create compounds has, currently, exceeded our ability to project what it is they do, why, and how it might affect an individual (if it will at all) in some cases. That's hardly a reason not to avail oneself of a tool - though I'd agree that it;s a reason to be highly critical of that tool. Is our own "natural" chemistry any better in this regard? I wouldn't (and couldn't) argue so, personally.
