While I certainly believe that the area of the brain and mind need much more research done, I also believe that Nature has a lot to do with who we are. Women can tell you that each baby while in the womb, has a definite personality. Why does one identical twin have schizophrenia, while the other does not?
It is that whole Nature vs. Nurture thing again. And I honestly believe that genetics have a lot to do with our "mental health" if you will.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. That is where therapy and support groups are invaluable. They can help you try something else.
But "talking" or "pulling" myself out of a depression is not possible for me. With the Effexor, I feel that life is certainly worthwhile and I have something to offer. Not something I felt with Paxil. Work and communicate with your Dr. They certainly need the feedback!
