Thats the other thing. A recent study showed that antidepressants actually worsened the course of depressive illness. They will bring initial effects, but more people these days are being treated for depression for life, when depression rarely lasted more than a year or two.
I mean think of it. I have been treated for depression for 6 years, since I was 17. Unmedicated teens don't stay depressed that long.
I blame my persistant deterioration to doctors who
a) Don't look for the root of the problem.
b) Needlessly prescribe serotonin receptor
corkscrewing levels of SSRI's.Linkadge
