"Depression is not caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain, and it is not cured by medication. Depression may not even be an illness at all.

Poverty, unemployment, and the loss of loved ones can make people depressed, and these social and situational causes of depression cannot be changed by drugs."

-- Irving Kirsch
