I admit to my belief that unless it is a true "clinical depression",
there would be alternatives to Rx medications.

The world got along without them for quite a long time.
Unfortunately, for those with true clinical depression,
the options were scarce and awful.

My bias is against the pervasive TV ads for these meds,
and physicians who simply write the script and collect their fee.
In part this is based on the article stating:

Patients who take the drugs often get them from their regular doctor
rather than a so-called mental health professional.
