They obviously work for some people, though none has ever worked for me. There's definitely a huge placebo effect, though it probably doesn't last beyond the 6 weeks of the trial for most people. (Of course in real life the placebo effect is even stronger because the person knows they're getting the real thing.) I definitely think only the person taking them , not a doctor or a friend can judge whether they're working. Plenty of people are miserable on the inside while appearing functional on the outside.
