So I was thinking that most anti-depressants made nowadays are pretty much made to be used at a consistent rate (e.g. every day). This way the pharm companies make money and if the user stops using them, they feel depressed and go right back, in most cases at least. I think this is completely fucked up. My theory is to make the patient more depressed instead of more happy. Of course, the patient must have no way of committing suicide as this would completely defeat the purpose. So say a patient would normally be fixed with an ssri (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) that they have to take every day. Well instead of giving them an ssri which they have to take every day, you give them an ssre (selective serotonin reuptake enhancer; which does the complete opposite of an ssri). Well when the patient comes off said ssre, they would be not depressed anymore because they're used to being synthetically depressed. Anyone have thoughts on this?
