Anti-depressants themselves are pretty barbaric, when the sufferer starts taking them, but once the body has adjusted to the chemical changes that they cause they can be beneficial, even if it is only a placebo effect. I think that the days of anti-depressants turning people into virtual zombies are long gone.
