I don't know who you are either, whatever that meant, hense the "annonymous", and if you're going to take shots at me you might as well read it through, never once did i say depression was not real (in fact i described my experience with it)or that medication couldn't help some people through.. it was my family that referred me to the antidepressants they use, which didn't work on me ...i did specify that they don't work on everyone. you missed the point which was that there is no proof whatsoever that depression is solely a chemical disorder if at all and therefore it cannot be compared to conditions like high blood pressure. it is not the same for anyone either that's exactly my point if it's not necessarily a physical medical condition then the drugs should not be pushed onto people before they are thoroughly medically examined. nor should anyone use them without researching the problem and the drugs that they are taking. i am not preaching or hoping to get fans by what i'm writing here whatever your problem is i was put onto drugs for depression when i could otherwise have helped myself out of the condition i was in in other ways, which i eventually did. so what if medications work for you great i'm glad to hear it but it might be good advice to give to someone who is maybe considering going the medical route to research and understand it all. if you know panic attacks you know that you feel like you're going crazy and have lost control and for me, i found that the medications took away even more control. there are people it works for and people it doesn't. both sides should be considered. yes they've brought people from the brink but those drugs also Cause many people to go over the edge.
BTW pam, you don't know sh*t about me like you so politely stated nor do you realize that i don't care if anyone in the world reads this posting so knock the bitch chip off your shoulder because i wasn't being insulting in any way...hopefully you woke up on the right side of the bed today and opened your mind a little
