   Sigh. Ignorant sow, they do not test anti-depressants on people who   
   would, logically, have no need of antidepressants. They test them on   
   people who have diagnosed clinical depression. It wouldn't make any   
   sense to test a drug on Joe Public, because Joe Public would respond   
   quite differently.

   Key word: Abrupt change. Under the monitoring of a qualified physician,   
   this DOESN'T HAPPEN. Drugs are gradually increased, or decreased - NEVER   
   abruptly started or stopped.   
      
   Additional bullshit not worthy of response snipped, as usual.
