“Do antidepressants work? There’s an intriguing body of research that suggests the power of antidepressants doesn’t come from chemicals in the drugs, but from the power of placebo. Not everyone agrees, though.”

Really good podcast. Thanks for sharing Justin. Mania psychosis insomnia and sexual side effects seem too big a tradeoff for a tiny improvement in depression. Plus no mention of the concept of active placebo. In sum I’ll take a pass on antidepressants. Lying psychiatrists won’t give up on this fight however.
