I guess the drugs must be getting overly prescribed.

If a person is really suffering from clinical depression, the only "changes in their lives" that the person can make is to commit suicide ... the range of options is really pretty narrow, either the drugs work or the person offs himself ... I guess it's okay to stand on the sideline and castigate the dude for opting for the drugs rather than having the guts to simply kill himself and be done with it ... but it's not the kind of thing I would want on my conscience ... seems cold-hearted and cruel to me ... thought it seems to appeal to some.


With all due respect, that's an absurd argument tantamount to saying that depression is caused by a lack of prozac. That's just silly. Antidepressants don't cure depression, they merely treat the symptoms, not unlike how morphine treats the pain of a brain tumor but does nothing to "cure" the tumor.

best...
