Whoever said that is incorrect.
There are short-term effects, and long-term effects. Acute effects. Chronic effects.
Diabetes analogy. Acute effect: insulin reduces blood sugar. Chronic effect: insulin treats/reverses peripheral neuropathy.
Why would SSRIs, or *any* drug, be different than that? Except by fluke, I mean?
