The watch time on anti-depressants is when the depressed person starts feeling more active - that’s when they often kill themselves. Once they get past that, the drugs can work wonders. I don’t think they depress “morals.” They do relieve relentless, pointless guilt associated with obsessive compulsiveness but do not turn people into moral idiots. Unless they were like that originally.
well thought out observations. SSRI’s were a lifesaver for me 10 yrs. ago. There is nothing like the helplessness of Anxiety, depression and panic disorder caused by genetic and environmental factors. I never had the urge to kill or any other aggressive tendency. I just wanted to feel normal again.
