I have a fren suffering from depression....serious case....he
tried to kill himself many times...then I brought him to see
doctor....he's now recovering....but the med bills are very
high.....dunno can sustain or not...you see, he stopped working due
to his illness....still figuring out what to do with $
issues....
Medicine for depression only treat the symptoms. It either
supress the symptoms, of induce a state of calm, until the drug
wears off.
If the root cause is not treated, then the patient would be
forever on medication. Medication should only be prescribed for
incurable cases.
Its better to be treated psychologically, without drugs.
