I agree that SSRIs can be very effective. And I think a placebo can also be effective if your mind believes it is helping you (look at the studies).
Sorry to not be positive, but I took 15+ SSRIs for almost 10 years. They never affected me, but hey I may be "treatment-resistant" (whatever). SSRIs just wasted a lot of my time, my money and my hopes.
But every med affects everyone differently.
