Sorry, but I think these links are scare tactics and still can't understand everyone's hostile fear to psychiatry. I've been on meds, including large doses of ssri's, for over 15 years, and my life has improved leaps and bounds. No I don't have EVERY perfect day, but I can actually live and enjoy life. Plus, even with meds, I too still have to make the effort, work very hard on myself, which i have learn't a great deal about psychology; proper social interaction; and becoming a kinder, gentler person. I remember the horror before meds. I will never let myself get like that again. Plus, I think it is more then just some doctor say giving you a small starting dose of an antidepressant and that is it. I think all AD's should forever be used with a benzo. Plus, the atypical antipsychotics work amazingly well, as well as various mood stabilizers. I completed a Graduate university on heavy medication, and it actually seemed to make it easier then in the past, before meds.
