The thing that people don't realize is that people often recover on their own, (sorry for repeating myself.)
We all like to attribute our recovery to something that was within our control, cause that gives us a sence of control. But as some others may agree with me, that recovery can something just be the way the wind blows.
Consistant findings with regards to biochemical abnormalities in depressive disorders are rare.
I would not push anyone to take a medication if their gut told them something was wrong. Statistically, the drugs can make certain people more suicidal and so many doctors today are agreeing that "Don't Push" is a good stradegy.If you want actual scientific statistics, then we can look at clinical trials. While AD's work in clinical trials, a lot of the time they are on par with placebos.
Just my 3 cents.Linkadge
