    Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a damn about treatments. I'm speaking to results.

    The reason why the treatments are called "improved" is BECAUSE they lead to better results. You don't call something improved if it doesn't do something better. Besides, I've already given you examples of results.

    I also don't care about some strictured clinical trials. Are you claiming that mental health is better today than a century ago?

    When did I bring up clinical trials? Some of the results are from clinical trials and some of them are from long-term data collection. TDCJ did not assess the effectiveness of substance abuse counseling through a clinical trial. They kept track of which parolees recidivated. There was very little mental health treatment a century ago, and much of the mental health treatment that was around actually made people worse. Do you do any research of any kind, or do you always make baseless claims? Mental health IS better today. Before, people would be locked away in asylums. Most of the people with the same mental health disorders, today, are well enough to be independent. I should know. My uncle was a veteran with schizophrenia and living on the streets several decades ago. He improved a lot with treatments that were not available a century ago. A century ago, they would have just locked him up.

    Please try to learn something today.
