Martin,
There's a lot of truth in what you say, although A/Ds *do* help some, though I believe they are hugely overprescribed for more conditions than just depression. I think we'll see that tendency will diminish in time. People will compare notes with each other and figure out that most will not be helped by these drugs, and in fact many will be hindered by side effects. Also, in the future I believe we will begin seeing reports of dangerous long-term effects. Have you ever read "Talking Back To Prozac", by Dr. Peter Breggin ? If not, see http://www.breggin.com, or check into the work of Dr. Anne Blake Tracy at http://www.icfda.org.
