Not really an antidepressant, but I'm amazed that micrograms of a drug can have such a profound effect on something as subjective (and entrenched) as mood.Well if you want to look at this way, I could go drink a six pack of my favorite beer, Beck's Dark tonight and Id be buzzed and feelin good tonight. Id pay for it tomorrow and for the next couple days though, booze worsens my depression. Same thing with hallucinogenic drugs like LSD and ecstasy. These are short term (very short term!) solutions to major medical problems. Kind of like using band aids to treat a brain tumor.
