Great question, @tekkie3. I've added this post to the Aging Well and the Anxiety & Depression groups because I think several members will be interested in contributing to this conversation about behavioral medications after 60 years old. I think members like @gingerw @jimhd @fiesty76 @mothergoose76 @parus @miray67 @marjou @wsh66 @summertime4 @eczarniecki and more may have experiences and knowledge they can share.
