Hi Fred,
Well your old home country is looking pretty bleak and grey (well at least to me right now).
I definately don't think that when I took ADs and they worked (infact I know) it wasn't a placebo affect. The effects were far too profound.
I do think though, based on my experience, that when they do really work then you can take them and come off them and feel pretty much ok. It's when they don't work properly that you get the problems coming off them. I had five great years on prothiaden, came off it when it seemed to stop working, and didn't feel as bad as I expected to, the same thing with Seroxat, I had three good medication free years. However, when my depression hit again and the drugs I tried didn't work as effectively, it was hell coming off them. I feel depressed on medication but off it I feel suicidal so I'm caught between a rock and a hard place.
Denise
