I was on fluoxitine for depression.....uhhh I didnt work because I'm not depressed???  I guess....

Then I was put on lithium and that worked just fine but it's not an antidepressant technically....so...Ill stop here.

my sisters doctorsw told her she has deppresion. her best friend just died about 8 months ago.personally i dotn think you can just go around prescribing people drugs because they are going through a hard time. you have to live through the pain, not take a pill and forget all about it. things happen to you and it changes and helps you become who you end up being.

i dont think we should be able to just prescride people pills just because they arent content.

I don't take them, but I know people can get addicted to them, and if they were to stop taking them, they'd go nuts.  My mom's cousin is on antidepressants and she says she feels like a robot on them; she has no emotions.

Also, it even says in antidepressant commercials that the drug can exacerbate the depression in some people.

I hope I live to tell the tale.
