> Maybe 15% of the people posting here actually have a real psychiatric problem. Of that group maybe half will get relief. Everyone else is simply neurotic except that these days flatulence can be somehow interpreted as bipolar disorder or ADHD.

> The rest are either a) prescription drug addicts who posibly don't even recognize it, or b)simply bored, unhappy, or otherwise normally upset with their lives and overmedicated by pompous uncaring *sshole doctors in a pharmaceutically driven society. The end result of which is a worsening of their sense of helplessness.

> My advice (to myself especially)...find a hobby instead of obsessing about ineffectual drugs. You've tried it all! Stop wasting your time & money. Go rob a bank or something...at least you'll make the evening news...
>And where did it stem from,i doubt most people here were bored of downloading porn and decedied to read up on depression.I admit its a lot of talk about a lot of drugs,but then again the industry has the public believe most disorders will be eased by meds,so people already working with lessened brain funcitioning due to these very meds are now left with no other choice to ease their suffering than to do as the industry says and seek treatment,which is either talk therpay or medication more over than anything else.
What i find more horrific than all these people posting about meds is the fact that hardly any of them are getting relieaf,but i dont doubt for a minute that any of them are downplaying their pain,when u awake with a sick sinking feeling in ur gut on a saturday suny morning,when ur kids are happy and u cant share their joy,when good things happend and instead u cry,thus is depression and people seeking relief from that is only natural like a man on fire would never stopp looking for a lake to jump in to ease hhis pain,hell try every place he hears there is water and he wont stop cause the other option is to stay in pain.I think ur way off personaly,im not gonna judge ur situtation or health,but my own personal belief is to make a comment like that it would be impossable to have true clinical depression,at the very least i pity the lack of relief more so than the persistency of the search.
