Antidepressants have done little or nothing for me.
After a recent failed trial of something novel, my current psychiatrist has taken me off all antidepressant medications, although I remain on a benzodiazepine.
It will be interesting to see how I do without any antidepressants.
I suspect significant institutional pressure exists for mental health practitioners to keep those with formal depression diagnoses on some sort of medication.
