I can't believe my doc said clonidine is not habit forming. He also said the same thing about Trazodone. Both, specifically clons, are habit forming as hell because people are trying to chase away the demon but only to replace it for another, newer, slightly less one. Doctors and the people must be able to white lie and subcnsciousky forge about this lttle thing. I've been to one, they're so programmed that if drugs aren't utiized for treatment, which it rarely isn't in such aformetioned cases, people generally waste $200 just to have an imaginary friend to talk to and say anything that they'd repress otherwise. Since the doctor is a human being, is physically present, is usually situated in a higher position, in a nice office. And Furthermore, and most importantly, the field of modern (post Freud, Rank, Jung, Otto, Reich and others, whereas the modern field emphasizes so-called empirical knowledge, behaviorism, repetitive treatment like animals, etc .... Even the talking method is just the patient trying to communicate her inner-psyche to the doctor. There is NO Analysis, and this is what psychical help is: ANALYSIS. We lack it entirely today. The doctor knows what he's going to do, the patient goes through the motions, and maybe the patient will have a theraputic cathartic experience (which you don't need to pay 200 bucks for, I assure you, nor do you need Lithium or Prozac). All the doctor can do is ask questions about in distance and with a lack of orientation. At least Jung, someone I don't like nor did I take away anything from him discursively or influentially -- nothing at all) and his methods, archetypes, dream analysis, self-psychoanalysis, and multiple other approaches he was notorious for inventing with that spontaneous personality of his. I think Dr. Freud is the person to study, read, teach, search, be searched by (but in no way in a traditional or immidiete on-the-surface reading of his texts- it takes hard work to understand what he means by Oedipus complex - it can't be summed up in one paragraph, one class, one semester, one year, etc... ... Lacan as well should be studied.
