To JRBecker and question on neurogenesis article

Posted by Denise1904 on September 13, 2004, at 15:45:02

Hi JrBecker,

I was reading an article you posted a short while ago on the hypothesis that damage to the hippocampus triggers depression and that the stimulation of new nerve cell growth contributes to a patients response to antidepressants.

What I find so frustrating is that all the studies seem to go by the view that anti-depressants can take a couple of weeks to work if not that then a month or so. When my own experience and I'm sure the experience of others too has proven that not to be the case.

In the past, Prothiaden worked within a matter of days and Seroxat worked with days too and believe me (I know) it wastn't a placebo affect (no matter what the doctors think) so do you know of any studies where they actually take into account the fact that some people do respond to them very quick, or does any of the scientific community ackowledge that fact (because it is fact)?

Thanks...Denise
