> Amen, Faith in God (or a higher power, as you understand him) does help a lot! However, I think that the thing that struck me most about this last message is the reference to a heritary predisposition to depression. As with diabetes and many other condtions, depression must be a genetic thing. Also, as with diabetes, sometimes our environment and/or our behaviors affect the expression of depression. Therefore, it is nothing to be ashamed of, just as you wouldn't be ashamed of diabetes. What you WOULD do is take your medicine and make lifestyle changes that limit the effects of your disease on your life, yes?

The other thing that struck me as being very true is that a good reason for the many negative postings is that those who take their medicine and get better often have no need to post messages. They're too busy living. I, myself, usually do not get involved. However, I found this site while looking for information on Effexor and noted the negative feedback that predominated, so I felt compelled to send some positive feedback. Ergo---
