saw this in the local paper (Australia):
"Is your depression under control but now you feel nothing really matters? Are you lacking motivation and drive? We're investigating whether a medication can help people like you feel more in touch with your surroundings again.."

In the US, it is being used as an adjunct for people who do not respond fully to an antidepressant.

Hey nice to meet another Aussie, which paper was it in g_g_g_unit? I saw a similar thing but it wasn't for depression. I'm in Melbourne.
