Just for the record, depression is not typically characterized by acute sensitivity to unpleasantness. It's more likely to be lack of sensitivity to "pleasantness," hopelessness, the inability to enjoy life, the inability to feel anything, pleasant or unpleasant, the sense that life is devoid of meaning, that you have no reason to get up in the morning. If what your friends meant is that they were "insulated" from those kinds of unpleasantness, it means the SSRI was working as it should to lift their depression.
