  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

Yes. I did the antidepressants, anxiolytics & hypnotics, antipsychotics, and mood stabilizers tests.

I'd recommend anyone who has access to it take it, so you can at least rule out meds that possibly will interact poorly with your genetic variations so as to avoid wasting time, money, and most importantly unpleasant, harmful, sometimes permanent side effects.

Unfortunately, specific to my experience, I did not get any useful new data to guide a change in medication strategy.

But I do feel it reported accurate conclusions.

All the drugs I ever failed were identified as moderate to significant gene-drug interactions; and all of the drugs I ever took and found at least somewhat helpful to me were identified as use as directed. The genotype/phenotype info seemed to correspond with my experiences accurately.

I wish it existed 18 years ago when I started on meds. I only just took it a couple years ago.

My health insurance paid it 100%; I probably would not have taken it otherwise because of affordability issues.

Hi again!! Glad to see you're still posting :heart:

I had it done a few years ago. I freaked myself out over the thought of everything being in the moderate to significant interaction categories & then it was all in the Use as Directed column. Like what's a doctor supposed to do with that? I remember just thinking "oh my god, really?"

It's sort of funny to think about now. I was so horrified of one thing happened that I failed to even consider the opposite.

Some people think these DNA tests aren't based in any real science, but it's not like there's any risk to them, especially when insurance covers it. If nothing else, it shows a doctor that you're exploring different options.
