Quack doctors blame their reckless, pseudo-scientific negligence on… [checks notes]… Iran.
A single clinical trial of 40 children in Iran, published in 2006, might have wrongly swayed medical evidence in favour of using Prozac (fluoxetine) to treat depression in children and adolescents, a group of researchers say.

You’re getting downvoted but it’s true
There is two solutions to depression, boredom and conversation. I genuinely believe if people were left to their own devices free of the societal stress of performance and given the ability to socialize as they please they’d work through depression at their own rate.
Humans are meant to be lazy and think and talk, on our own schedule. Therapy can help, medication can allow one to emotionally shut down but they won’t recover. You need rest, relaxation and relief from stressors. Get bored and chat at your own pace preferably with kind and intelligent people, I genuinely believe nothing will heal you better.
You are a person of rare insight
It worked for me. I don’t think you should be on it permanently, but it does help.
Yes, as a temporary means there’s no problem. It’s the idea that depression can be treated with drugs, when depression is caused by real life problems that must be addressed, often due to unsafe caregivers.
