Beyond impressive

I’d pay all the money for this. But it’s free. Ya’ll are doin the Lord’s work over at Baylor/MGH. You all included lisdex in your stim use (meth specific) disorder algo and that’s all I needed to see. Thank you for not 100% regurgitating only prominent National guideline recs and being bold enough to incorporate other valuable sources of evidence into the decision tree. MANY, many thank you’s for the time and dedication spent and continued to be devoted towards maintaining such a fantastic tool.
