Yes, I could have been clearer that I was talking about 'talk therapy' not medication. Does the argument work as well for shamans? Maybe,except that I was kind of implying a materialist point of view behind psychology, which might not apply to shamans. But who says that shamans might not 'cure you' of your depression just as well?
