What I meant was, for most who already believe that depression cannot or is not caused by brain chemistry and who don't believe that medications can help, no amount of what anyone else provides as proof is gonna pass muster... It'll just remain a theory at best, never enough proof. And for most who believe depression can be or is caused by brain chemistry and who do believe medications can help, no amount of what others provide as their proof is gonna pass the test either. It's kinda like debating religions. That's just my opinion.
