I am approaching a place of having exhausted nearly every treatment and medication for my bipolar I and cPTSD (and other crippling anxiety disorders) that are available in the US. While some have helped short to medium term, I always decomponsate and end up back in the hole.
I know there's a perception that the American Healthcare system, while being deeply flawed with its ability to gouge patients to financial ruin, is exceptional and the best available medicine in the world if you can pay. That said, I know there are many medications in other countries that are not available in the US. My question then becomes, is anyone aware of any promising treatments in other countries that are not available in the US that I might be able to pursue?
