The article said that the mice acted like "mice that had been treated with antidepressants for at least the last 3 weeks" not that they acted like NORMAL mice!!! As other people have pointed out, our current "antidepressants" carry a list of horrible effects as well as positive ones. And they're as addictive as alcohol and the always demonized opiates. It's time people just stopped spewing and believed propaganda and start prescribing drugs that work on depression and don't have disgusting and ill-understood side effects such as morphine, hydromorphone(a morphine-like drug), diacetylmorphine(a morphine-like drug called heroin), methadone(a slightly longer acting morphine-like drug), or even buprenorphine(a mixed opiate agonist-antagonist). These drugs are understood and help depression in a vastly larger portion of the patients than the popular drugs; they have understood side-effects (e.g. constipation -- that's it for the vast majority); they don't cause brain damage or organ damage; they don't cause teeth rotting like people claim (look at an alcoholics teeth, yet was it the drug that caused the teeth to rot?); they don't sedate people who use them consistently; in tests, there is no mental dulling as is seen with every class of antidepressants. AND, FROM THE START, OPIATES REDUCE DEPRESSION. THERE'S NO NEED FOR A LABEL SAYING THAT THEY MAY ACTUALLY INCREASE SUICIDE RISK!

When someone claims that Prozac isn't addictive but morphine is, ask him why the users of the drugs feel "lightning strikes" in their heads when stopping. I'd personally taper off of morphine, a compound taken over thousands of years by human beings for physical and mental pain rather than take a drug that makes me *feel* my brain damage in the form of mental lightning strikes. NO MORE PROPAGANDA. NO MORE LIES. READ THE SCIENCE.
(excuse my hasty spelling and if the current psych drugs work for you, then I'm happy for you, but I hope you understand that doctors don't understand the side-effects! The drugs have only existed for 5 or 10 years, so be watchful and careful.
