Obviously none of the posters have suffered from depression. I have and I can tell you it really changes your personality. Thank God for the new drugs that have been invented in the last 20 years. But let me tell you, not all medicines worked for me. It is a trial and error search for the patient and the doctor to find the right one. T he trouble with giving these drugs to children is that they can't tell if the drug is working. They're told it will help them, like taking amoxicillian for a strep throat, and they don't know the warning signs if the medicine is not working or making them worse. Remember, this kid was suffering from depression. It is a real disease and many times is clinical not situational. You can't make yourself better by wishing it away.
