I see what Ian is trying to get at here. The doctor has clearly established the wrongness of the serotonin theory of depression, but obviously there are chemical changes in the brain that go beyond wishful thinking. Try slipping someone hash brownies or opiates without their knowledge and see if their mood doesn’t improve a bit.
You can be well off or poor and still be depressed its a real disease. I would like to see a micro chip fix the problem. Drugs will be something of the past soon. I hope.

Fuck that man, go watch 1984..
The cause of depression is diet and environment!
I guarantee a change in diet will help or fix your so called disease.
I educated my friend who was on antidepressants and he’s off pills now and happier than ever!
