Coffee dilemma

[blueta2]

tr00

Every drug in the psycho-pharmacopoeia is cosmetic. There are no curative drugs.

Consider two treatments that "work" for depression, cognitive therapy versus SSRI's. For each you get roughly a 65 percent relief rate, along with a placebo effect that ranges from 45 to 55 percent. This means that the treatment's net actual effect is between 10 and 20 percent. The more compelling the placebo, the higher the placebo percentage, and therefore the smaller actual effect.

And again by effect, we're talking relief, not a cure.
