there is no test for depression being medical. And it is not this/or. There are biological components. But there is chemistry to love... and yet we don't call love chemical imbalance.

Psychiatry is not exact science, as much as many would want it to be. Human psyche is too complicated for that.

And if your spirituality is okay (I am not refering to God even. I am not saying go to church. I am a polytheist personally), why do you always react in this way? I define spirituality as something beyond your human self - a sense of purpose, fulfillment. And this don't come in pill and without this, I believe, you cannot reach satisfaction.

I refuse to let it go, because each time somebody promotes the medical model, it implies I am damaged goods, defective being, broken brain... while the world of 2000s is oh-so-swell and there is not problem and I have no reason to feel what I feel, I should just pop a pill and STFU. It implies MY spiritual feelings are probably just a symptom and I should just take my meds and let it go....

See... there are two sides of the story.
