Agreed, and I do not know what to think of my own case even though the med that seems to have helped so much is not actually a psychiatric medication. For a little over six years I have spent months at a time at various levels of depression (sometimes completely silent) while trying to survive mentally, emotionally and physically while trying to figure out how to reduce stress and anxiety...and now just a few scattered doses of a med have brought or have at least helped me out of the worst of that to a point where I presently have no need of it at all. At the moment, none of that makes sense to me.
