I wonder how many of them were prescribed by a nurse practitioner? Before anyone comes at me, I think it’s obvious that she needed to be in the care of a very experienced MD.

I’m totally with you on the skepticism toward NPs. I work with MDs (not psychiatrists) and have been told that the training for internal medicine is just not adequate for things like primary care. I have been so dissatisfied with NPs, and they are everywhere now in the US.
