Antidepressants treat a deficiency in levels of a needed neuro-transmittor (sometimes several). Declining levels of these critical neuro-transmittors happens with age, stress, diet, genetics, lack of sunlight, short winter days, etc. Its not anything to stigmitize. Those who do stigmitize anti-depressant use, and snicker as if its users are "mentally ill" or escapist drugees, are IMO showing signs of mental illness that should be treated. Or are simply quite mentally challenged. I don't snigger at people that are sad or depressed. I use my brand of help. You seem to think if someone doesn't espouse a drug approach they are stupid. That's your opinion. You believe people need the drugs to handle the serotonin. I don't agree. I'm not attacking, but stating my view. If you think their are no "experts" they share that view, you are mistaken. I don't believe it's "handle the serotonin levels and it'll all be OK." Apparently, you do. OK. If you think it's only the crazy Scientologists that espouse this you are incorrect. Here's the site of a guy who thinks "Scientology is an evil cult." See what he says about the serotonin thing: http://astrocyte-design.com/pseudoscience/ Here's what another non-Scientologist has to say: http://www.washingtontimes.com/commentary/20050706-094908-8654r.htm To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
