‘Thousands suffer from side effects of antidepressants, including severe withdrawal effects that can occur when people try to stop them, yet prescription rates continue to rise,’ said lead author of the study, Professor Joanna Moncrieff. ‘We believe this situation has been driven partly by the false belief that depression is due to a chemical imbalance.’

Martin comments: And for decades, Big Pharma has been pushing the Prozac and it’s variants. I know someone with depression who took themselves off the pills and uses other means of managing their emotions. And all the better for it.
