Are depression meds worth it?

[Wombat]

depression is pure bullshit. its a fucking choice not something that just hits you for no reason. maybe it hits you when you realize what a pathetic fag you are or if your life sucks so you have a reason to be depressed but people who are happy dont suddenly get hit with depression for no reason.

I know a guy in the wwf who is the top 3 wrestler in the world whose life far from sucks that is taking anti-Ds----Countless amounts of actors and actresses----Probably(just a guess on this one)75% if not higher of all pro bodybuilders are on some sort of either anti-D-pain killers--sleeping pills---does there life suck? Only they could answer that...Doctors are notorious for being on anti-Ds and/or other meds for depression. Olympic athletes take anti-anx meds for various reasons. Police and fire fighters use stress related meds from time to time. The truth is most people do not walk around on this earth being happy. Content yes.. But happy no. 2 diff-feelings---I had dinner with my wife and her boss and husband about a month ago. Her bosses husband is worth in the neighborhood of 25 million dollars, has a 3 million dollar house in corrondo(sp) San Diego---Seemingly has everything going for him. Has a Lamborgini(sp)Diablo and a few other toys but the moment I met this guy he was a nervous wreck(thats the way I saw it anyway) His wife was telling my wife that he is taking some anti-As and that he gets paranoid about his money. Does his life suck? Does he love life?--Like I said only he could answer that...

Why is the dental profession one of the top fields that has a high risk for suicide? They make tons of money--set there own hours--meet tons of chix--But most dentists are profectionists in a world that is not perfect...peace...
