Hey There,
What a load of crap .... more propaganda produced by the psychologists pushing "talk therapy" and "drugs are bad". With a myriad of effective medications now, the field of psychology is shrinking .... freud is out the window. So you will come across these types of articles from time to time to try a scare patients away from medications.
Studies show that CBT has effect on mild depression, but *NO EFFECT* on severe depression. Meds and ECT are only effective in severe depression.
Please don't let this article discourage you ..... a relative of mine has been on imipramine for 25 years .... and she seems to be doing better every year.
