Antidepressant Increases Risk of Suicide in Kids

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

Depression is a very serious condition, only getting more publicity recently

due to high profile public figures suffering from it. I am unaware of any

alternative solutions that are as effective as anti-depressants. Homeopathy

works for some people but is completely ineffective for others. And Bach

Flower Remedies and other alternatives like St John's Work only work with

very mild depression. While acupuncture has many proven benefits, it

shouldn't be used as a direct response to depression or instead of medical

intervention. Ignoring pharmacological intervention could be just as

dangerous as dealing with 'dangerous anti-depressants'. More importantly,

there should be a holistic approach, which alternative therapies being

practised alongside medication.
