It sounds to me like people tried one kind of antidepressants and then gave
up? Just because Prozac doesn't work doesn't mean antidepressants don't work
or always have horrid side effects. There are a big variety of anti-Ds and
often you have to go through a bunch of them to find one that works.
Many people really need that medication to function properly, or even to
stay alive.
