I certainly sympathize with those who ADs don't help but 50% success rate is high compared to many drugs used in other fields. We consider ourselves lucky in that Zyprexa eliminates most of my son's Schizophrenia symptoms. In addition Zoloft gets rid of nearly all of the depression and "flat affect" connected with the illness. There are probably tens of thousands of successful case histories in most areas of MI that ADs are helping and that's nothing to scoff at.
