You may believe or have been told that you are depressed, sometimes the term is "clinically depressed".
You may have been told by a medical professional that you could possibly obtain relief
from pills. Antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics.
Perhaps you know someone using these, and perhaps they have been effective for those persons.
Before you decide whether or not to try any such drugs, I would urge you to invest a significant
amount of time and effort researching the potential negative effects. You will even find evidence that
suggests that the people who make, sell and prescribe these drugs don't even actually know for a fact
how they work, only that they sometimes appear to have an effect.
I think you will also read that studies reveal that control groups of persons who went into
therapy, or took pills, or both, compared to groups that simply did nothing and saw no one, of
all those groups, the pills and therapy pretty much made no difference.
Over time, people simply got better all by themselves. I am not suggesting you not consult
with anyone over this, only that you very very carefully and at great length do research before
reaching a decision. Dr. Peter Breggin might be a place to begin.
