Joanna, you are right. Thanks for your clear statement.
And because of the development of tolerance and chronic receptor changes, antidepressants might worsen depression or create chronic depression.
Good for the profit of the pharmaceutical industry. But not good for the patients. The industry and the administrating doctors should get sued, when depression gets chronic, because they fail to warn of these well-known effects.
Best wishes, Peter
