This is dangerous. Sure criticize for-profit pharma but it will cause harm to tell others who are struggling to ignore the huge of amount of research on different pharmacological treatments that are over and over again proven to be more effective than placebo. The meds I'm on have no profit built in. It's like $8 for 90 day supply. The research shows it's so effective that it even lifts mood/energy/sociability for non-diagnosed mood disorder patients (without giving away too much personal detail it was originally an effective treatment for something unrelated to mental health). If anything these 'change your attitude' or 'tips' kind of articles get under my skin a bit. For many changing habits can be helpful, especially CBT with professional guidance, but for many actual major depressive disorder patients no amount of habit or behavior changes will have meaningful effect without actual medicine.
