how many think a lot of depression can be controlled by the person and how many think it's chemical?
antidepressants

being on prozac, i would definetely have to say it's a chemical imbalance. 3 of my aunts are on prozac too. i tried zoloft and it didn't work, this makes me think it is chemical even more.
yet, this does not mean a person is not in charge of their life. they do have to TRY to be happy.

well i'm having that dilemma because i'm on effexor and i'm having nightmares every night that people i know are pointing out my flaws...
i'm usually extremely organised and focused and i'm neither lately.
so i don't know if the drugs are helping or i just need to try harder...

In a lot of cases the drugs alone will only help for a short time. It is still a constant battle in your head.
I have been on almost every kind of anti-D out there but although they surpress feelings of doom, they are not a cure.
My head and a lot of people that have depression have trouble catching and concentrating there thoughts. The inside of my head in like the screen of the stock exchange 24 hrs a day. Its a battle I know I'm not alone in. Except it as part of you and control it. Although it can be tiring, it does not have to be a bad thing. It just takes mind control, maybe drugs and therapy if it gets really bad.
Don't ever be ashamed of it --- some people think its a blessing. Those types of people really understand how powerful the mind can be. And remember you are never alone in the way you are thinking.

tough call
medically the drugs are sound in theory as they stop an excess of this chemical in this area of the brain etc....
it all depends on the person and tghe nature of the depression. if without pills its hard to magae or even makes you enter a dangerous mind state, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with popping back a few pills. in fact there is never anthing wrong in principle with sensible use of a medical prescribed drugs. dont let others rile you up, and just keep doing what makes yopu feel good
