  The person you're replying to has multiple sources to defend their comment. It's not a big secret that antidepressants are overprescribed and extremely easy to obtain. Sure, they have their uses and may be life saving to some, but their use should also be questioned from time to time.

    > The person you're replying to has multiple sources to defend their comment. Click their first citation. It’s a study that shows that people who discontinue their antidepressants are more likely to relapse than people who continue taking them. It also says that relapse is more likely if the person was depressed for longer before receiving treatment (e.g. excessively delaying treatment made relapse more likely) It doesn’t support their wild anti-psychiatry rant at all. Don’t be fooled by off the wall comments that try to overload you with a list of citations that they know most people won’t read.

  Insulin is a bad example. Research has shown that many type-2 diabetics no longer need exogenous insulin after they make the correct lifestyle changes. https://www.sciencealert.com/science-proves-diet-can-send-type-2-diabetes-into-remission-and-there-s-more-than-one-option https://www.sciencealert.com/science-proves-diet-can-send-ty...
