> Name one FDA approved antidepressant that doesn't work.
While this whole thread may just boil down to semantics Scott there are some people, especially those with treatment-resistive depression, for whom none of the FDA antidepressants work, if by working you mean that the drugs relieve them of their depressive symptoms. And for some patients with Lewy Body dementia and other dementias many psychotropic medications have a paradoxical effect whereby these meds make symptoms worse. They certainly do not work for these patients. But as you have implied the exceptions should not make the rule.
