I think a lot of what you are hearing are people who are probably more "treatment intolerant" rather than "treatment resistant". Obviously if your meds are working for you and you are tolerating them then you should continue taking them (IMO). I am personally not trying to fool myself into thinking that I can somehow be "med-free". I know better than that! I have problems with antidepressants primarily because I have bipolar disorder. I just think there is more than just a little bit of a coincidence that I have trouble tolerating them physically as well as mentally.
