- Well, I meant stupid as in, there seems to me to be a better way of fixing
- the problem. I didn't mean that sertraline (thank you, couldn't remember)
- would be any less "stupid", just that it would probably work. Actually the
- people I've known on uptake inhibitors who have chosen this over phototherapy
- did so because of the inability to keep a strict waking hour schedule or
- because of travel requirements.
