As the economist John M. Keynes once noted,in the long term we are all dead. The question with ADs is do they help make your life worth living, while you are still here on earth? With me the answer was no, except for a brief period (months) while I worked through the issues and stresses that led me there.
Obviously you and others have had more postive experiences and more power to you. However, that is not necessarily the norm. It may be but I've read and experienced enough to not trust the pharm. co's stats. and reporting of the immediate and longer term negative effects. Scientists and doctors not affiliated with pharm. co's. are the ones who should be judging this, as well as those who've experience with ADs, both good, bad and ugly.
Sante!
