A major study of lots of other studies by the University of Hull found that anti-depressants such as Prozac, Seroxat and Efexor are no more effective than taking a tablet full of… well, nothing.
I have always been dubious about the so-called side-effects of anti-depressants, because it seems to me that not wanting to have sex, feeling sick and the desire to end it all are just as much side-effects of depression itself.
Pointing out that anti-depressants are no more effective than placebo tablets only serves to prove the point of them. Because, for the depressed humans and parrots of this world, SSRIs provide a much-needed feeling, and that is one of hope.
