    why people belive in chemical imbalance is linked to “don’t put hot food in the refrigerator” because great grandma told grandma told mom and mom told you cause in 1920 it would melt the ice in the ICE BOX and ruin all the food and over flow the drip pan. Today 2011 the compressor will remove the heat for 1/10 of a cent in electricity and is self defrosting. Your food will stay fresh longer if cooled quickly.

    @RedDwarffs Actually, cannibis is NOT a narcotic, unless you are refering to the California legal definition, which was obviously written by politicians, not doctors. It is pharmacologically distinct from opiates and synthetic narcotics. It’s been refered to in the psychological community as “natures paxil.” But, since you aren’t even aware that marijuana falls outside the definition for narcotics, maybe you don’t have a firm enough grasp of the subject matter to contribute anything valuable

  6. RedDwarffs says:

    @WTFukinshit “BTW, WEED works better than ANY of those meds”

    Weed is not an anti-depressant. Cannabis will get you high, because it’s a narcotic. If you smoke cannabis all the time to maintain high mood, you will quickly see why cannabis is not good for treating depression.

    Really good! This video has been very insightful.

    @geolisn I also was not sure but I thought I had nothing to lose and good things to capitalize and thank god I called, I’m glad to reach this video and called the number.

  9. geolisn says:

    @fsagarnagaaw Thanks very much for your information, I was not sure abut the phone number you give, but I decided to call because my father had a lot of side effects with an antidepressant, we had to spend a lot of money in hospitals and doctors to keep him alive, that is why I decided to get legal help and sue the pharmaceutical company and that phone number was the key element to start, I hope you are all fine and god bless!

  10. fsagarnagaaw says:

    I had a huge problem with antidepressants, my blood pressure went very high and also some relatives had problems, this is all because of the doctor prescriptions, they only care about money and pharmaceutical companies share a lot of their income with unethical doctors, I decided to get legal help to try to recover my life back we received the necesary help in this toll free number in USA 1888-652-2889

  11. zjsg7wld says:

    and still, we shouldn’t forget that antidepressants help many people, if they are used properly greets

  12. TehNateDogg says:

    Presume they use it cuz doctors don’t know if the meds will work 4 everyone cuz everyone is different

  13. WTFukinshit says:

    I want to show your video to my shrink. I’m diagnosed with PTSD and once a month I see a psychatrist to argue my non-medicated stance. Since I returned from Iraq in 2003, I’ve been through several different anti-depressant drugs, ADHD drugs, sleep drugs, pain medications, and mood stabilizers. I finally gave up on meds and am convinced that the governemt would rather kill me with pills than pay me for life, go figure. Thanks for the video. BTW, WEED works better than ANY of those meds

    Make no mistake…I do think AD’s are overprescribed and SRI’s along with the new SNRI’s should be reserved for people with Major Depressive disorder and/or a severe anxiety disorder.This is the way antidepressants were prescribed when TCA’s and MAO’S were the only classes of drugs being used to treat MDD. The reason the sri drugs are used so often by doctors is because they believe they are much safer and better tolerated. These claims are certainly true but there’s still major problems.

  15. pnpny04 says:

    @changingmyself Okay,so it’s true in some cases people experience suicidal ideation and that’s awful.I’m not saying black box warnings shouldn’t come along with antidepressants.Nor am I saying they should be taken off the shelves.I’m assuming they never will be if the benefits outweigh the potential harmful effects.That doesn’t make your situation any less serious.As far as variables I was talking more about statistics outside of controlled settings (if there’s any) where big Pharm. had to pay

  16. pnpny04 says:

    Also, if an antidepressant has worked for someone with MDD, you probably noticed the drug didn’t work right away. It usually takes 4-6 weeks.Therefore, it’s obvious that blocking the uptake of serotonin is only partially responsible for the Antidepressant effect. Drugs like Prozac start blocking the uptake of serotonin immediately upon first dosage yet the person is still suffering. Blocking the re uptake of serotonin day after day is only the first step in a chain link of causal AD effects.

  17. changingmyself says:

    @pnpny04 Here is what it says at the Government website:

    A small number of children, teenagers, and young adults (up to 24 years of age) who took antidepressants (‘mood elevators’) such as paroxetine during clinical studies became suicidal (thinking about harming or killing oneself or planning or TRYING to do so).

    Does it say that other variables? NO. SPECIFICALLY: those that took antidepressants BECAME SUICIDAL. I not only became suicidal, every thought I had was about death.

  18. pnpny04 says:

    @changingmyself Not everyone is effected directly (i.e. harm to a loved one would effect me!).The side effects you speak of “may include…”But If I wanted to discourage anyone from trying an SRI, stating “death and suicide are side effects”should frighten them > enough. Now I thought you were effected indirectly because if you did experience these side effects 1st hand, what in the world are you doing here?Now you’re saying science has proven ur claim first hand w/o considering other variables?

  19. changingmyself says:

    @pnpny04 Actually, I have, and had you actually read what I said, you would have seen that I had been effected by it, otherwise, how would I know the side effects of the pills? Oh, yeah that’s right, because I have taken them. Not one, but several of them.
    No, my first sentence isn’t misleading, the side effects ARE death and suicide, not everyone has the same side effects and I never claimed that they did.

  20. pnpny04 says:

    @changingmyself what about the side effects of Major Deppressive Disorder?? Suicide + death because life sucks? Maybe that is no big deal to you because you haven’t been effected by it, but I have and many others have too. Your first sentence is so mis leading. At least substitute “are” for “may.”

    Thanks for the video…wish I had known this stuff before taking Prozac.Now I’m withdrawing and it has not been fun

  23. LesPaul2006 says:

    @FloydIV Those are useless under severe depression. They might work for mild depression, but not for severe.

  24. TheManiNicole says:

    So do they work or not?

  25. FloydIV says:

    @TheHolyMolyPoly There are a lot of alternatives… You should look up 5 HTP, have a better diet (eating more vegetables and fruits),taking supplements, meditation and working out. You know, the obvious examples and easy steps than taking some pill that just alters your brain chemistry.

    Maybe you’ll be less angry.
