How do antidepressants help?
I'm a 17 year old girl (turning 18 in a few months) and I was at the doctor today and she suggested that I maybe should take antidepressants since Ive had no luck with therapists just to see if there's anything that would maybe help me. I said no because I honestly don't believe they'll help me. How do they work? I'm just wondering because pills won't change what I see or hear, they won't change how my life is, or stop me from being hurt. What I would need is a pill that makes me completely delusional and take me away from reality, but I don't think a sane doctor would give me any drugs like that. So, what would antidepressants do?

They improve your mood, plain and simple, and when even Sad Face is in a good mood, she will not let the things that normally or used to make her angry bother her because she just won't give a darn anymore. A D's WILL change what you see and hear, because if you feel better, you will see and hear in a more positive way. Because your general thoughts will be more positive, you will automatically attract more positive things in your life. Bad thoughts attract bad things in your life, good thoughts attract good things in your life. This is a LAW whether you believe it or not just like the law of gravity is a LAW whether you believe it or not. If you walk on your roof and come to the end and keep on walking, you will fall to the ground whether you believe in the law of gravity or not.
