"I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." Abraham Lincoln

As I read this research, it doesn't indicate that antidepressants don't work, as the article's headline suggests; they do work. But they don't work better than placebo. What's most interesting, to me, is why placebo is so effective.
But that's just it. If they don't work any better than a placebo they, in and of themselves, don't work at all. The belief you're taking something, anything, is the real agent of change. Much like a placebo.
Yeah, okay. I guess we're quibbling over terms a bit.
