>>14139173>Depression is a natural reaction to a degenerate and inhumane society. Partially, but not really. I have had periods in my life where I had a lot of control over it and was still miserable, despite being physically healthy and active. Nearly everyone in my family is fucked and is either bipolar, has retard CNS issues or is just permadepressed. I am no.2 and 3. Biology really just screws humanity over, thats it really. Brains malfunction and throw errors, immune system does random shit, childbirth kills women and babies, etc.
>Taking antidepressants will at best result in a placebo effect in the short run but is useless in the long run.It can help, but not at all because of what you think. Sneakily what happens is that S(N)SRI's promote neurogenesis, which undoes negative changes in the brain associated with depression and also makes you fucking smarter at the expense of causing dangerous af side effects and generally being a dirty solution. You could achieve similar effects with other drugs and activities easily, if you dont mind breaking the law of your respective country to acquire them.
