Putting out a paper w/ a headline like that will convince many who could be helped by medication (perhaps life savingly so) to continue suffering.Undoubtedly SSRIs/SNRIs/etc work for millions of people. It is quite possible they have some other mechanism of action aside from increasing serotonin that makes them efficacious, though.
