> This seems about right considering Antidepressants have already been shown to decrease the concern for ones own wellbeing. And when one is less concerned about themselves, surely theyre likely to be less concerned about the wellbeing of others.
Where have anti-depressants been shown to decrease concern for one's well-being. Certainly, depression decreases concern for one's well-being, so much so that people contemplate, attempt and complete suicide. Maybe whatever studies you are referring to are measuring lack of concern on the part of those who HAVEN'T RESPONDED to AD's - apparently more that half of those prescribed ADs'. I know that I have little concern for my own well-being when depressed, virtually none, in fact. When drugs work, I start working out, engaging in activities, meditating, calling friends.
I'd like to see the source for your statement.
