I guess it depends on the severity, but in most cases I've seen people just use the medication as a way to "fix" depression without doing much else. It doesn't fix depression, and when used that way all it does is put it off temporarily, if anything. I get bothered when I hear of people with mild to moderate going on medication and acting like it'll "cure" them or something.
For severe cases where they need to be chemically/hormonally balanced in some way, yeah I completely agree.
Yeah, it is a bit of a problem with over-prescribing ADMs to people who would in all likelihood recover on their own terms, or with a simple course of counselling/CBT. Part of the problem is GPs/Family Doctors not being trained properly for spotting and treating depression, I can't quite remember the %ages but the rate of False-Positive and False-Negatives was uncomfortably high. People who need ADMs end up without them and those who don't get prescribed a bucket of prozac.

The most important thing to remember is that depression can be overcome, but it's up to your willpower to make it happen. Not through medication, which is just a supressor. It's entirely on you.
One quick clarification, I'm talking about MDD/Clinical Depression here rather than mild depression. I dislike this view for a couple of reasons A depressed person generally speaking has their willpower sapped by the depression, placing the onus on them to overcome the depression on their own doesn't always have positive results. Some people do it, they are the lucky ones who probably didn't have MDD and I'm glad for them. When you are looking at clinical depression, very often there is a biological basis to the disease rather than a purely psychological/social one. Psychiatric medication is used to stabilise the person, to bring the depression under control and to achieve the desired effect (typically of raising serotonin levels) which then brings the person to the point where they are able to engage with psychological therapies properly - leading to the optimal result of the person leaving therapy with the resilience to ward off future bouts of depression. The other experimental theory at the moment involves the regeneration of neurons in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, as measured by levels of BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). In a normal person, they have a healthy stable rate of neurogenesis in these two regions but in a person with MDD/Clinical Dep. the levels of BDNF in their body are abnormally low. This means that their brain on a cellular level is being damaged and altered by the lack of new neurons being developed - either as a cause or a symptom of depression - you cannot 'think' your way out of an issue involving damage to the neurons in your brain. Don't get me wrong, the power of a person's mind is great but there is only so much you can do with thought and willpower alone when there is a biological problem gnawing away at your brain.

Wait... oversleeping can lead to D & A?
But I love sleeping.
um
no
I haven't given the thread a full read through yet, it's been a rather busy day but for this point in particular
Changes in sleep patterns are one of the indications of depression/anxiety, however they would not be considered a cause of it. So you can enjoy your lie-ins without worry, what would be cause for concern is suddenly starting to sleep an awful lot more than usual, or an awful lot less.
Oh.
I do both a bit.
Which I imagine can be explained through the life of a student <.< However, if you then fit the criteria for some of the other conditions/symptoms listed (without other normal explanations) then they would start to look at depression >_> A lot of problems, either normal life ones or mental health issues, have the same symptoms/presentation so discerning which is the actual cause of them is usually quite a game >_>

Flee you speak better english than most natives I've ever met <_<
Unfortunately I can't really think of anywhere that would be good to practice the fancy talking, someone else might know though.
The only thing I can think of that might be a bit of an achilles heel would be english colloquialisms, because if they are included in the tests then god help you.
Stuff like
'Raining cats and dogs'
'lost the plot'
'off your trolley'
'spend a penny'
'spanner in the works'
If you know what those mean you'll be set
That's not real English
pull the other one you plonker

>ads based off browsing habits
The only way my browsing habit would cause ads like that is the amount of weeb threads on Sep7 every day
Which is close to none actually. Psy took a look recently and there were maybe 12 over the course of 4 months from what I recall.
Back when a few people were crying damn near every day about the unending anime threads, I went back over the last 20 pages to see how many threads had anything to do with anime/manga/weebery. 5 threads were to do with anime/manga/weebery. 12 threads were people complaining about the anime 'spam'. 30 x 20 = 600, -3 for the stickies = 597 5 threads out of 597. And 12 complaining about the endless weeb threads. You couldn't get a better example of cognitive bias if you tried.

That being said, no further discussion on the morality of suicide and people's opinions of it in this thread.
Make a new one if you wish to discuss it, otherwise return to the topic at hand which might actually do some good for someone out there rather than just spazzing out at each other.

Inb4 mods remove this post or edit it for being "flamatory". This is how I view it and I am being serious. Fuck off mods.
To be honest, leaving that embarrassing mess of an opinion on public display is punishment enough. FYI it would be 'inflammatory'. Friend

Don't take the pills, they are quite likely unsafe for you to consume.
Chances are they are a form of steroids, so as tempting as it might be for you to take them to improve your musculature rapidly they are not going to do you any good in the long term. Quite aside from any adverse reactions you might have to the other chemicals added to the pills.
I hope you didn't purchase them, and if you did I hope you don't purchase more of them. Dispose of the ones you have, do things properly even if it takes longer and then you won't have to deal with any of the long term health issues.

People give him endless shit and wonder why he acts strangely. IIRC some of the weirder shit he did was after his mother died, so it's not really right to hold that against him.
The other one that comes to mind is that bastarding papparazi sat outside his house at god knows what in the morning taunting him so he could get some footage of 'shocking: kanye swears at reporter!!!  ' for his clickbait / toilet rag magazine.
That's the consequence for marrying a Whoredashian.
As ghastly as those ladies are, it doesn't really matter who he chooses to marry imo It's the same principle as gay marriage, nobody should really give a shit when it has no bearing on their life.

There are shitty covers and tribute songs in abundance, they really don't matter.

I'm going to have a grand total of £15,000 when I finish my degree.
It's not great but compared to every bugger else, I'm getting off lightly. This is going to hit my friend hard though, because he's not from a well-off family.
Still though, the price might be eye-watering but provided they don't change the rules of repayment it's not all that bad.
The day they try to fuck with that though?
The student/graduate chimpout in london will make the 2011 riots look tame.
hang on hang on
you're getting paid for your 4 year degree?
I wish lol No, that's the debt. I will however get paid when I go to do the doctorate, because the NHS pays it's clinical trainees a salary whilst they study. Which is nice.
