AD's are for adjusting brain chemistry
for a long time doctors thought that change would remain after treatment was ended
however they didn't and still do not know jack sh*t about what happens
ten years ago i used to get a couple maybe 3 months of feeling okay before i had to get back on meds
these were my most productive times
but depression is an illness that tends to worsen over the years
so, a good AD doesn't mask the symptoms it alleviates or lessens the symptoms
we don't get to be "all better" though
