A lot of us blame the medications when infact much of the reason many of us are treatment resisant is because we most likly have shrunken hippocampases. I know these meds are supposed to help that however. I read a study that showed the people who respond best to paxil were the ones with the largest hippocampases. We are not really figting a war with chemicals as much as we are with brain cells and brain matter.
Neurogenesis is the cure for depression. You can pump as much serotonin into the brain, but if there is no limbic system to appreciated it, you're screwed. It may take years for some of that to repair.
