Hi Daniela,
I think I get the gist of what you are saying.... and I can see both sides of the story. For me, personally, SSRI drugs have done more harm that good, well the side effects are worse than the depression!! Well, thats not strictly true but anyway I figure I'm better of without them. And I got sick of the eternal quest to find the 'perfect' pill for me. I'm plain unipolar through, and in my case a decent childhood and some self esteem would probably cure me. In cases like mine I think taking an AD just masks the problem and doesn't get to the root of the depression. Some decent therapy/CBT probably would be better.
I realise that other people have different problems, illnesses etc etc. and medication is the thing for them. I think we just have to respect each others' path and what others chose (and why they have chosen this) rather than judging people for what they chose, be it pills, therapy, herbs etc.
