@mandyland76 The idea that the brain chemistry is unbalanced and needs to be rebalanced by medications has been totally disproved. That lie was pushed by pharmaceutical companies to sell drugs. Current studies have shown that brain chemistry becomes unbalanced AFTER taking psych drugs. Also, studies have shown that people experiencing severe depression or schizophrenia that did not take medications did BETTER long term than those that did. Dr. Kim West

@mscanza It's not the best treatment. Look up Irving Kirsch's work. Retrospectively it's been found that antidepressant drugs are no better than placebo for mild to moderate depression. And you CAN get better from a bout of depression or anxiety by eating better and feeding your brain nutritious things. The mainstream medical community has been hijacked by drug companies who are making a ton of money off of us... your trust is misplaced.

They go after Drug Dealers with extreme prejudise, but they turn a blind eye to the Pharmacutical companys which are the new drug dealers, forcing/pushing the drugs on doctors, turning them into pushers. It's all about the money. The truest saying is that "Their is no profit in peace or welness" They won't be happy until they have the entire populaces on drugs - and on as many pills as possible.

I have been "poisoned" for 14 years with Paxil after a post-traumatic shock depression. After consulting info on internet and with the help of a close friend, I decided to stop the drug gradually over a period of 4 months. Went cold-turkey and went through a scary period. Now am FREE from it and take natural supplements (Seredyn) to help me sleep when I get tense. But one can be cured with the help of behavioural Cognitive Therapy and bio food. But the withdrawal was really horrible.

You got to see his point, farmers pump so much crap over their food/animals and we are eating it, it's gotta be making a detrimental effect on our bodies.
I'm in my 30's, and i don't know many people my age who haven't been depressed at some point in their lives, most of this is due to life and social issues, which i don't agree prescribing drugs for, this needs cognitive therapy and healing.
Doctors need to face up to the responsibility of the harm they have caused to so many people and an apology would be a good start.

People who suffer mental illness, however, need to take medication to keep them stable, because the neurotransmitters are not working properly.
People are all too ready to pop a pill to make the pain go away without actually facing the problem.
There are 2 kinds of depression - Biological - the brain does not function as it should, drugs necessary to balance chemicals
Social depression - bad experiences through life, abuse, heartbreak etc etc, you do not need to take SSRI's, face the problem!
