*"These chemicals can even give you depression, which is figuratively the definition of irony"*
@Jérémy nah if that were the case elderly people that are on oxygen would die because they don't dilute that its straight pure oxygen.
@Jérémy no I know what you mean to much of anything can kill you.
Unfortunately it's a consequence a metabolic syndrome. Your neurons will be deprived of glucose, killing them. This causes the secondary depression.
@@iamthehype3684 Jeremy is correct. Breathing pure oxygen is harmful and can be toxic. People on oxygen are not just breathing the oxygen from the tank, they are also breathing the surrounding air. The tank of oxygen is supplementing the oxygen they are breathing from the air. I believe his point was about breathing ONLY the pure oxygen.

“If you’re worried about side effects, don’t worry! They can just include an inability to have sex or eat or sleep.” As some one who has been on the anti-depressant medication merry go round for years, this is WAY too true! This whole video is!
That's merry-go-wrong if you ask me.
one more thing there is the inability to concentrate on anything that you might like and hence can take you out of depression
I think that we would all be happier if we didn’t have to worry about finding a rich person who could use our labor to make themselves even richer.
The inability to sleep or have fun times is what bothers me the most
Then WTF are you doing get the hell off those things get outside go for a hike pet a dog
As a person diagnosed with clinical depression, this is scarily 100% on point.
Jesus Christ can cure you
They're using MDMA and psilocybin mushrooms to treat PTSD and depression in new university studies Australia and the UK. I was cured of depression using DMT as a meditative aid. Read about ayahuasca. Depression can be cured.

That's actually a threat
Yeah , make you sleepy all the time , give you joint and muscle pain , make you feel nauseous (leading to throwing up), diarrhea , a low sex drive (and the possibility of becoming infertile) , increased anxiety and mood swings.
Commentator Sort of. We have a general idea what the drugs do, but not why they work and only a limited understanding about who they are likely to work for. BDNF is a new avenue, but it’s certainly not a Rosetta Stone.
Erectile disfunction
I remember being in two antidepressants-effexor and lexapro-and they just totally killed my creativity, and made me feel dull, rather than relieved.
Those are both the same drug, sort of. Lexapro is a slightly modified version of celexa because their patent expired and they needed to keep making money. Lexapro was good for me 20 years ago but I tried it again last year and the side effects were so bad I couldn't empty my bladder properly.
Me on effexor lol. Im the opposite it helps me with my creativity and function but its side effects oh boy.

+Patricia Ricken Leroux On youtube the system is different. you are advertised to based on your search history but youtube advertising is selective which is why you won't see an ad for a horror movie before a Cartoon Network Video. usually it has to do with how the video is tagged or what channel it is, branded companies and popular channels.

I have depression, and people just want to throw pills at you, but they don't want to give love or friendship or give you a place in society, all things that would make you feel happy and be okay.
@Quetzalcoatl They do provide care, but it's very clinical care! A therapist talking to you for about an hour and that's the extent of your human interaction for the day! No one can really survive with that, can they?
@Quetzalcoatl I haven't had that experience with a therapist, my has been pretty helpful and supportive. I'm sorry if yours hasn't! People need more love, care and interaction in their lives. We can't really function without it!
I felt that
Nobody owes you any love or friendship or anything.
True. Sometimes you have to earn friends. People are grossed put by depressed people for some reason, I started to make new friends after getting out of depression. Of course is not fair, but I didn't make the rules.
I like how the script balances admitting that at least some people need antidepressants but also that so little is known that even valid treatments can be hit and miss.
I went through a few prescriptions before settling on one (which was scary but I was in a tough spot) BUT I know one person from a family with hereditary mental illness who made a huge turnaround with the very first prescription she took. So hopefully this field will get better.
Good to hear about a positive experience for once. I have been depressed for a long time, about 9 years now, and I haven't once turned to anti-depressants because I'm scared to death of them. I figured that I'll wait for the science to catch up, but it has also taken a big toll on me. I'm 27 years old and completely reliant on my parents, because I can no longer will myself to repeat the same patterns everyday that normal people do, let alone working or studýing. And it just so happens my friends are all financially successful and self-reliant, so of course they don't understand why I don't just apply for jobs and make money.
Anyway, I'm at the point where I might as well experience the horrors or trying on different anti-depressants. Maybe I'll get enough energy to do exercise and some other meaningful self-care
@@kaspergamer460 did anything happen?
So glad I came across this comment in a sea of cynicism disguised as hope or being “holistic”. Balance is key.
Clearly Roger has never been in a manic episode or witnessed one, and the depression that follows. The side effects happen even without the drugs. So yes, balance is needed.
Need? What did people do before they became available? What has Cochrane concluded about their efficacy?
I love this, I was waiting for the side effects part. One commercial I saw said a side effect was suicidal AND homicidal thoughts. Wth?
That's seriously fucked up.. But with drugs affecting brain I could understand that it sometimes might end up really bad, it somehow could be understood. To me seemed worse that acne cream that could cause in some cases deadly bleeding diarhea. That is seriously disproportionaly high risk compared to what it was supposed to treat.
I love your hair.
Those warnings actually lies too. If you don't have suicidal or homicidal thoughts to begin with, taking anti depressants can't make them magically appear, just like they don't make them magically disappear. That means, if you already have them, then in a depressed state they are likely either supressed or used as a fixation point, because in a depressed state you aren't energetic enough to act on them. However, if you uncontrollably take antidepressants while having suicidal, homicidal or any other obsessions, you might end up in a situation, where you don't have enough time to asses your options (if you take too high of a dose, or if you're isolated yourself, and don't have anyone to talk to), you're energetic enough to act on your obsessions and from a fixation points they become actual goals, since you don't have any other goals at this very moment.

You missed that they create a chemical dependency; and that quitting them, or even switching out to a different one can have devastating effects. Yay!
Yay. Withdrawal. Now THAT'S SERIOUSLY REAL. LMFAO XD
You got that right! Going off on antidepressants is the hardest shit I’ve ever had to do.
It's like crack/heroin/meth addiction, these motherfuckers don't even know what they are massively prescribing to people, and they insist in continue selling them because IT'$ BUCK$ BABY!
I was put on like the only antidepressant that makes you gain weight. I gain 13 pounds in like a month then lost it almost immediately after I stopped taking it. I went from too skinny to a healthy weight while binge eating to too skinny again.
they live I already stopped taking them because they weren’t helping my depression I was just binge eating like crazy. I only got side effects. I’m on aderall now though cause of ADHD
"It will definitely do something to you."
Yep. Empty yer bank account.
When I was put on anti-depressants they worked just as they’re supposed to and gave me a little boost in mood/ focus/ energy so I could then take the necessary steps of following a daily routine and going to therapy. After about 8 months I tapered off of them and didn’t have any negative side effects doing so. They didn’t magically fix my life but they helped me be able to fix it myself
This is what most people don't understand and mindlessly hate the medicine. It isn't magic. But it helps u focus and get better.
@@veebee5865 the video was saying that it’s like shooting darts, meaning while it may hit the target some time, it may not for some people

@@elin_ Agreed! Depression is multifaceted. I’m here to help with what I know. And I sure don’t know everything.
@@jessemichaels2818 I am diagnosed myself.
There’s a whole science dedicated to this. The chemicals are called neurotransmitters, and if you don’t have enough of a certain neurotransmitter, then you may have chronic depression. It really depends on the diagnosis and how you react to certain medications. They do work for a select group of people, but not everybody. That’s why there is such a wide range of antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics, and much more.
That's exactly the point: they can't predict which one is for whom yet. It's OK there are many, because everybody reacts differently; the problem is we are but guinea pigs, and it even worsen some people's condition. "First do no harm", said some prominent doctor a long time ago...
*"We live in a society where expressing emotions is seen as a weakness"*
So true, just that thought alone is depressing. 😭
I don't know why you suddenly got comments from two people wanting to have sex with you in the last 8 hours, but I'll chime in that I know how you feel. It's hard open up in a society that sees you as weak. My solution so far is to recognize how insecure everyone else is and take the extra step by being myself. If you're with the right people you'll find that they like you a lot more, even if they barely know you.

Anthony Rock What is the punchline or statement are you making? That people don't actually have depression and it's all made up? Only arrogant people who never had real depression would say that.
No, what he's saying is that there are A LOT of ignorant and confused people who self diagnose themselves when actually, they are just having a midlife crisis that will pass. it's really quite embarrassing for those people who actually DO have depression.
Exactly. Like, I don't get mad very often (as in week or months go by when I'm just casual) but the moment I do, my grandmother insists that I have mood swings, so a doctor gave me some medication to regulate that. Except that it had no effect because I never had symptoms to begin with. So naturally the doctor upped my dosage like every other day.
Hexx grandmama knows a depressed child when she sees one.
a long time ago back in 2014 a bunch of staff were at my face talking trash which pissed me off. i got really angry because they insight it. and than they baker acted me and wrote up lies to put me on anti-anger pills. which i think could also be anti-depressants. i came in that hospital healthy and got out sick, depressed and had suacidal thoughts. anti-depressents don't work. they are a scam. all it does is make people worse than they currently are. i am a naturalist i refuse to take any form of medication and only rely on healthy things such as tea fruits and healthy food. i became way better without those pills. these pills serve for nothing other than dumbing down people and making them sick while the creators of it make profit.

Bralph888 what did you do instead of taking their prescribed shit?
Easy way to combat depression is hobbies. Do something that makes you happy. Whether its games, watching movies, or hell even releasing sexual tension as your body literally can't tell the difference from stress and sexual stress. What ever releases dopamine generally will help you. Also avoid depressing shit. Like movies that have a bad ending or bittersweet or a show that is overly dramatic that pulls on your heart strings.Basically avoid what puts you down and focus on what builds you up. Medicines can help but really if you do what I said it can get you off of it. Just manage your emotions. It may sound hard but all you need to do is stuff you like. And if it literally requires no effort like tv shows or movies then all the more easier to fight the lack of motivation depression can cause.
@@densetsu4286 I had to do the prescribed route because I didn't just have a lack of motivation I also received little to no pleasure doing anything including once favorite hobbies.

@@beautylikeatulip well we are all different and not every method works for everyone. This is just what works for me.

There will always be more research to be done to improve medication and yes the pharmaceutical companies make big money however let's be real I wonder how many companies would be interested in developing a product if no money was to be made...? A lot of people are quick to criticize modern treatments but homeopathic treatment does not always work either. And that coming from a avid homeopathic enthusiast.

Hi Jacqueline & Fabienne
Everyone has to decide for their self what to believe and what not to believe and what a person chooses can affect their mental (spiritual) and physical health. If you want to, do a little research on the “placebo effect” which is based on faith and is the reason why some meds are effective.
Could a person grow enough in faith to be liberated from taking drugs? I think so but each person must choose and travel their own path.
Best wishes to you and yours. :)

"We don't know how depression works so we don't know how antidepressants work"
No, we don't know why depression happens to a particular individual because there are so many different factors that can exist separately or overlap with each other and so almost every case of depression, while capable of being categorised, is unique, and therefore we don't know what medication will work for an individual patient until we try one due to a combination of how their biological make-up affects not only their receptiveness to certain chemicals, but also the nature of their depressive disorder.
For example, if one drug is effective for a parent, it's much more likely to be effective for their child.
Not only that but some people have purely chemical depression that will go away with medicine, for some people they only have life issues to sort out because they've lived with depression for so long it's affected their ability to function in general, like how someone may have a permanent limp in the future if their broken leg isn't treated properly during the healing process
Interesting.
So since everyone is different it's liker everyone is an unpaid tester/guinea pig? it's like unfinished $60 video games where we pay to be beta testers.
And the idea that depression is so mysterious and complicated that it's impossible to determine its etiology is potentially very dangerous. A lot of doctors take "depression" as a self-explanatory diagnosis and medicate accordingly. But, say, thyroid damage, whether by autoimmune disease or cancer, can also cause depression; so the idea that one doesn't need to look any further after diagnosing depression allows those diseases to progress. Even after it was obvious my thyroid was the problem, it took me years to find a psychiatrist who would base my treatment plan on the results of regular blood panels rather than going by How Sad I Felt.
Since we don't know how the brain fundamentally works, we don't know how any mental illness works or how medications work. It's not a chemical imbalance and who the fuck knows really? Antidepressants create an artificial condition that your brain has to compensate around. This compensation is the false happy feeling you get until your brain becomes so tolerant to the drugs that maybe it changes permanently or something (who knows? not psychiatrists) and they stop working. Then it's time for the next one and the next one until the healthcare industry has milked your insurance for every penny it can and you are a husk of what you once were that you can't really even remember.
This aged so well
As someone who spent years of their life taking these "meds," the hilarity of this representation is jaw-dropping.
Pills to treat depression, side effects include: depression. The circle continues...
This is brought of so often, but basically stupid. If you don't already have depression, don't take antidepressants.
This is a listed side effect, because off-label use. You might not be depressed but have anxiety and get an off-label prescription. Then, if you're very unlucky, you might actually get depression. Still not good, but way less worse than it may at first seem.

What's the point of being happy if your dingdong doesn't work?
That's like the opposite of happiness.
@Fluffynator Well you're either a girl or an idiot if you can't figure out how having a working dick and being happy correlate.
chaosmastermind I’m a girl and I understand. Soft dick makes me miserable too!
Fluffynator Um...that’s factually incorrect. SSRIs work by blocking the reuptake of serotonin (a neurotransmitter) in the synapses of the brain, increasing the amount available. Loss of sex drive is a super common side effect and it also happened to me when I used to take them.
I don’t know where you learned whatever you’re talking about, but it’s dangerous to go around saying things like that. You’ll contribute to the stereotypes and misconceptions that make the systemic problem worse 🙈
@Fluffynator My prescriber straight up told me it could make it harder for me to cum. And it did.
But there is a cost-benefit analysis. If you are suicidally depressed, a hard dick may not help. sometimes, if you have the right outlet, it might, but it is hard to chase after that if you are depressed, so---.

If you don't know what causes depression and what makes it go away, it's actually quite simple and the medical industry knows this but hides it from the public so they can sell their stupid drugs that makes people feel nothing. Ok, so here it is: Your brain needs seratonin. It's a normal hormone in the brain. People sometimes calls it the feel good hormone. Cause that's one of the things it does. Puts you in a good mood. One thing that helps your brain to absorb seratonin when you have too little seratonin in your brain (that's depression) is tryptophan. Tryptophan is a natural protein in the body that opens the "door" for seratonin to get into your brain. But our bodies doesn't make tryptophan, we need to take it in in our diet. Turkey and chicken is rich in tryptophan. And tryptophan helps you sleep better also. Which gives you more energy, more seratonin, better concentration (seratonin helps you concentrate too) and no depression. Other things helps too. Exercise to get rid of the toxins in your body. The colours blue and green in nature releases seratonin in your brain. Looking up at the blue sky, head tilted up, releases seratonin in your brain. So, eat chicken, go jogging and rock climbing, drink lots of water, walk in the garden. And in these times, one of the things that helps most, is hugs from your family (of course now the ones that lives with you). But you won't be cured if you do all this and you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Listen to the New Testament in one day, and choose Jesus. I have been there, I know what I'm talking about.

At 2:34 With that amount of rain, you don’t need anti-depressants. You need an ark.
I don't even have words for how hilarious and infuriating at the same time, this is. Maybe that's a side effect of the medication???
Probably. But if you take Hortiolis, you’d feel a lot better, probably. Just ask Roger.

Lucky here in the Netherlands we aren't as crazy that these things get advertised. Very irresponsible they do it there in the USA.
Well, it's not only applicable in the US tbh
Lots of doctors in the place I'm living (Hong Kong) also prescribe those medicines in case patients self-claiming they have depression/anxiety - I mean why not since they would have extra incomes?
Do they advertise junk food in the Netherlands? Most advertising is irresponsible.
Money talks.
Money is king in the US.
Antideppressants have commercials? Lemme guess: USA?

I think they should have mentioned how they can make young people contemplate suicide. They mentioned that depression can worsen but thoughts of suicide literally can just come out of nowhere when starting a new antidepressant in people as old as like 25
Yup, one of those pesky side effects can make you feel much worse. Usually because it's a guessing game to find the right tablet and dose
it's a temporary effect since antidepressants tend to restore motivation before reducing the depression
buntcubbles ah yes, because only doctors have ever dealt with antidepressants. Nobody who's a patient would have any experience with being on them.
***** A temporary effect that can have permanent consequences
Like so many other medications out there. Some acne meds can cause suicidal thoughts. but at least one can be monitored and kept safe (in hospital if need be) until the true effect of the meds can be determined. taking heart meds can have permanent consequences from a risk that lasts indefinitely yet hardly anyone bashes those.
I can testify to this, I took Hortiolis and just a day later, the weather changed.
As someone with a variety of emotional and learning disabilities, including depression, and who has an absolute nightmare of a time trying to find the right chemical cocktail to artificially force into my body to hopefully make me feel slightly less shitty in some vague way, this one is actually upsettingly relatable. Good thing Roger is here to make me ACTUALLY feel a little better!
As someone who has suffered bipolar depression and only recently got medicated, I can safely say that medication is _worth it._ I was lucky enough that the very first one I tried has worked, and I cannot _believe_ the increase in the quality of my life. And this is from someone who was anti-medication for ages because I was medicated for the wrong thing when I was younger.
EDIT: There seems to be a bit of a debate whether mental illness is all in one's head. All I can say on that front is that if you believe that, then you are either very lucky you have never experienced the type of mental illness that takes control of your life whether or not you try to think your way out of it, or you are in denial about what you are suffering. If it is the latter, I hope you can find some way to get help. Even if you believe it is all in your mind, I hope you can at least see a therapist to help you better take control of what's going on in there.
that's not the point at all.
This video is not anti-medication. It is not saying that anti-depressants are never useful. It says that it shouldn't be taken by people without the expertise of a doctor. If you didn't auto-diagnose yourself with a bipolar disorder, then your comment is irrelevant.
Bro all the problem is in your head. You're paying other people for lying to you. Tsk2 so sad
My bipolar meds are not antidepressants - but they are used for epilepsy as well.
@@monhbatonon6333 You must be one of the lucky ones who have never experienced mental illness, my friend. Wanting to die since I was thirteen years old and having no control over how upset minor inconveniences made me was not, in fact, all in my head. Losing friends and family because I could not regulate my own emotions was not all in my head. The scars on my wrists are not all in my head, and neither was the attempt on my own life I performed while I was in high school. Do not comment on things you have absolutely no knowledge about.
What are you on? Cause I’ve tried like 6 different antidepressants/antipsychotics/mood stabilisers and none of them have really worked. Mood stabilisers were the worst, literally made me devoid of life, I didn’t even look at my phone, let alone do anything else
*If you take Hortiolis, maybe the weather will change HAHAHAHA*
He forgot something important: those medecines often "may induce to suicide"!?!?! The exact opposite of getting better and out of depression, right?
Antidepressants don't "induce to suicide". Depressed people sometimes commit suicide, and depressed people also use antidepressants, therefore sometimes people using antidepressants commit suicide, not because of the drug, but because of the mental ìllness the drug was used to treat.
Of course these drugs aren't without their side effects, but they aren't supposed to be used without a good reason, i.e. only for severe depression with risk of suicide or disability, not for mild depression or just bad mood. If the illness can lead to death or disability, one can accept the risk of side effects, do you not agree?
@@exantiuse497 yeah no, they can trigger suicidal feelings. The drug companies admit it.
BTW, antidepressants are the most addictive drugs to try and get off of.
@@madtabby66 Agreed, suicide is a possible side effect of the withdrawal from the meds or even just taking it at the wrong time. Even the drug companies admit this.
@@exantiuse497 i disagree, my wife has been struggling with depression all of her life and only once has she thought of suicide and that was on meds
Okay so suicide risk is higher for people who start antidepressants within the first week or so but there is a reason for it. Lots of them work by delaying the reuptake of seretonin in your synapses which basically bridge the gap an electrical impulse has to cross so you can feel things.
So early on, it hasnt had the chance to properly make you *feel* better but it gives you more energy and motivation to plan a suicide attempt - and better planning makes them more dangerous.
So they do work if you get the right ones and ride through that early period. The additional suicidality is, weirdly, the first step to them making you better. It just needs to be accompanied with careful planning, awareness from loved ones and a very good crisis plan
This is beautifully offensive. I wish that I had the audacity to share this with my in-laws.
Yeeess! That’s one of the most difficult relationships you can have esp wife mother in law! it’s ok. We all deal with family BS 😂

Fun fact - only two countries in the world make it legal to advertise prescription drugs directly to consumers. Those countries are USA and New Zealand. Those are also the only places on Earth, where this video is relevant and makes sense.
Also Canada, where we get a lot of American TV and, with it, their shitty adverts. I see depression ads all the time on American channels and I'm like WTAF?
Stop stealing our electro-magnetic radiation you filthy hoser!
Actually medical adverts have recently arrived in the UK. The first time I saw one I flipped the bird at the screen and despaired at how we're becoming the 51st state of America.
Another reason why the happiest country on Earth is Denmark.
themarquess incorrect. There are prescription drug commercials in Canada
"... it will definitely do something to you... oh, BTW I'm Roger." LOL PRICELESS!!!
"As noone really knows how depression works, noone really knows how anti depressants work"
Mind blown. Sorry I ever took pills from my doctor.
The rain calls to me...sweet falling drops that calm the mind and wash sadness the same way that people listen to depressing music to express emotion. Besides, a good rain always has a rainbow.
I also totaly love the rain because the sound is relaxing and it is somehow "real". I don't like the sun very much though.
I love the orchestric organization of thunder and lightning as rain fills the empty silence. Wonderfully organization of chaos !!
I love sitting in rain and enjoy the sadness while it's converting to happiness but my mom always restricts me from doing anything different like this which also is a reason I'm depressed
Very poetic
Taken a few different anti-depressants and you know what helps? When your friends actually act like friends instead of ignoring you. Even when I tell my doctors that my friends agreeing to do lunch with me made me feel better, they credit the drugs they are pushing.
I now know better after taking that crap from age 11 to age 22. I now try to boost my self esteem by accomplishing goals. Maybe I go out and give blood so I don't feel worthless. I stop texting assholes and go out and introduce myself to new people. When someone hurts my feelings, I tell them, so I'm not bottling up my emotions. Sometimes they even apologize because they actually do care about me. That makes me feel better. Thanks social skills! Seriously, working on your social skills can do wonders. Try being nice to others... they might be nice back!

ok but like some people have actually hereditary depression like bipolar disorder. Not saying that what you're implying doesn't work, but just saying that for some people, psychiatric medications are a necessity
that sounds like a depressive delusion, dude. maybe try talking to your psychiatrist and telling them the truth? you might actually find a drug that works.
Yea, I've been depressed for quite a time, but I listened to this one CZcams video about motivation and reaching for your dreams, and every day I listen to videos like that and now I'm doing much better :)
No they won't. You can be the nicest person ever and a lot of people will just treat you bad on site.
Make friends, but watch your back.
"We're basically throwing darts in a pitch black room at a target that might exist." How did he get my life's mission statement?
True🤣. The one I take even has a "black box" warning saying that the meds could cause suicidal thoughts or actions. Very safe
We don't even have black box warnings here in the UK, how fun! One benefit is that you can't advertise prescription medication here, but doesn't stop docs from prescribing SSRIs for literally anything, reminds me of the whole Maslow's Hammer thing
Antidepressant commercials? Wow, just wow. How is that legal? Next the Cartel will be advertising crack.
Legal to use predatory tactics to sell psychoactive drugs to desperate people?
It should be legal to advertize it, but to doctors not directly to depressive people.
Nah oxycontin, it's the real deal! Highly addictive and easy to make it's also legal and big Pharma pushes that stuff worse than a cartel pushes cocaine.
Basically the same thing
In Colorado, pot dispensaries advertise themselves on the radio.
Oh, but that's only half the story, not only can they advertise directly to consumers, but they have their reps go in an grease up the doctors so they are actively TRYING to find patients to prescribe their drugs to.
I tried to deal with my social anxiety and my Doctor tried to pump me with anti-depressants. I went to a different doctor and got actual help.
i went to a doctor to ask how to tell my mom im still a virgin
nigga personal problems arent something you go to your doctor for what the fuck
"I refused my doctor's help for literally no reason except pills are scary"
"actual help" means not taking drugs, huh? Guess I should get off the pills that are literally stopping me from killing myself if I wanna PROPERLY get better, then
Sure. You're living the rest of your meaningless life thinking you are happy, thanks to the drug.
maddokcan Well, I've never heard of anyone feeling euphoria when going to the gym, but getting back on target:
You have misread me. Positive psychology teaches people to subject happiness on themselves, and if they can't subject happiness on themselves,-like they are supposed to believe- than they should take drugs to help them get their. Either way, its implied that you should artificially manifest happiness, when in reality, emotions don't work that way.
I am not here to discredit the reality of depression, and thank you for your information about the drugs, but I am speaking in the perspective of a man indifferent to the idea of blocking out unpleasant thoughts, when, for most people, what we should really be doing is working out those unpleasant emotions. Sadness and anger don't just exist to give us a hard time,, after all.
I was completely sold by the cute animation. It was adorable.

Given time, this can only lead to a better society of people who think just like us. A homogenized society if you will. What's not to like about a society where everyone thinks the same, eats the same, uses the same toilet paper, goes to work at the same time, comes home at the same time, has the same hobbies and extra-curricula activities?
We're all just interchangeable disposable meat sacks in a machine after all. The sooner people realize and accept this (or expire) the better it will be for those few who profit from the entire construct. What's not to like about grinding your mind and body into an early grave so long as your efforts go to enriching someone else? Don't be selfish folks! Get with the plan!
:D
The most cynical people are often also very deeply insightful and pensive with a sensitive underbelly. They just need a layer of protection from the bs they have known was there since they were young. Question everything .
I really like and 100% agree with your brilliant comment, from the day we are born until the day we die, we are used, indoctrinated into a system that is well established and ingrained into our society, go to work, pay extremely high taxes, that a large portion go directly to the privately owned federal reserve bank owners pockets.... your given foods that are genetically modified, which make you sick, the sugar and preservatives make you sick aswell, the heavily promoted alcohol and tobacco industry help to ruin your life, the gambling industry is everywhere now, designed to seperate you from your money, which its very good at...almost done, then when your sick you get to experience the pharmaceutical and crooked medical industries, they suck the life right out of you, and break you financially, if you can go back to work while dealing with these man made and nurtured illnesses, that's great, they can continue to squeeze the last ounce of tax money from you.. we are debt slaves, meant to be mindless, indoctrinated sheep that do what there told, and listen to a media that's has one job, keep us in line an lie to us on a daily basis
Best slogan ever,
Buy hortiolis! It'll definitely do somethin' to ya... XD
I have drug resistant clinical depression. That means there isn't a drug currently on the market that has made me able to feel anything other than zero joy, enthusiasm, energy or motivation.
Depression isn't being sad. If I could fucking BE SAD that'd be improvement. It's the inability to care about not being able to care that you can't feel anything.
At the very least you aren't a psychopath or a sociopath.
If you are, the second one, that really sucks.
You sound upset you can't be upset, that you don't care.
So...maybe you do care a little bit, like just enough to know something is up.

I've been through the deep disparaging hole of depression. It's easy to fall in and lose your way and even when it feels like you are trying to dig yourself out, it's like someone is piling full shovels loads of dirt on top of you. And even though I have personally experienced the "dark side" of depression. I must say, depression is not a bad thing. It's a natural way for your brain to tell your body it's not happy with how you have been living. I combat my depression with writing; it's my outlet. What's yours?

I love how he sounds and looks incredibly happy and the music is incredibly depressing.
And this is why here in the UK it's illegal to market prescription medication to the general public. Antidepressants can be incredibly helpful for those dealing with serious depression, but only for those who actually need them.
In Italy is illegal too, I don't know what's going on whith those Americans
Flori Gjonaj this is a normal thing to advertise it here. Every drug from the doctor pretty much.
@@MynicknameisViolet why I mean don't you just go to the doctor and he tells you what's your problem then he chooses your drugs for you?
Do you have to tell him which one do you want?
Flori Gjonaj a bit of both. If it’s a psychiatric drug then it’s done by the doctor. Now I think about it, there’s no use advertising psychiatric drugs when the public can’t pick what to use

I like the alternation between flowers and "Hortiolis"
Their use of funny sarcasm is something else.
That's the most sarcastic "cute little doggies" I've ever heard, ever
This was funny and on point as always although this one kinda resonated with me a bit more. I was on anti-depressants for over 10 years and by that point I truly thought I needed them even though I always felt "bleh" anyways. If I ever missed doses I'd go through horrible withdrawals.
Finally after having enough of dealing with so-so doctors and pharmacies giving me trouble filling my meds I just stopped taking them cold turkey. it was hell for a few weeks but you know what? I haven't felt this good in years! I've lost weight,I'm more sociable and outgoing,and i actually feel like leaving my house and doing things.
Just goes to show you medicating yourself isn't always the best course of action. I swear sometimes it seems these doctors (some not all) just prescribe you stuff so you have to keep coming back to them for refills.
Sorry for the Essay but for me this video warranted it.
I think I took Paxil at one point but the one they had me stay on was Abilify. I also went through those same symptoms stopping the Abilify so I hear ya.
When you were going off them did you feel depressed? For how long? I don't know if I still have depression or if it's just the withdrawal.
truth is, sadly the medical field is also a business. doctors gives a when they see b and that's all they do, humans are far more complex. self medication is the best solution for stress and depression.
I was placed on zoloft for 3 years. I was dead convinced I needed it to stay sane, but eventually my friends got through to me and I realized I was just a zombie. Getting off it sucked I was moody as hell and it was hard to control my emotions but all my friends were happy because I was HAVING emotion. After a bit, my moods calmed down and now Im just a normal person. I still have bad moods sometimes, but thats normal and okay.
It is a good thing you are alright after stopping your medication BUT many people will not be. If video's like this one scare you - although it has ,many valid points. PLEASE talk to your doctor about your medication and desire to try being without medication. In most cases the doctor will help you.
At some point, when I was young and fool, I was diagnosed with depression. I refused any medication. I just went my way. In a couple of months, my life situation changed and my 'depression' was gone. Guess I was just a bit upset.
@Christina Reynolds Bruh im reading a short story and all the sudden, "sO?"
It is important to remember that if you are depressed and/or anxious as your “normal” instead of as a sometimes thing, it is probably something to address.

I've been on antidepressants for 34 years, and anxiety med for several years and they are a God send. I was very fortunate that the first one I tried worked. It stopped working after 7 years, which is common for that med. The next one I went on I am still on. I am sure I would have hurt myself without those meds.
I'm glad the antidepressants made such a difference for you! That's wonderful.
I think the point of the video is that antidepressants shouldn't be overprescribed, not that they shouldn't be prescribed at all. My antidepressant tried to kill me (it's more complicated than that, but for sake of time I'll leave it at this). If my doctor hadn't been so happy to prescribe without question, and if she had listened when I mentioned the terrible side effects, that never would have happened.
Antidepressants just need to be used with skill and good judgement.

I'm not sure why, but something about this rubs me the wrong way. I do agree that antidepressant commercials are flowery garbage, but I think it sends the wrong message about antidepressants themselves. Before I was diagnosed with chronic depression four years ago, I was terrified of antidepressants for these exact reasons, that they don't REALLY work and it's all placebo, that they turn you into a zombie, that depression is just "feeling sad briefly" and pills aren't needed you just need to lighten up already! But now I can confidently say going on antidepressants was the best choice I ever made. I started on a low dose of Prozac and have since changed to a moderate dose of Effexor and Risperdone, and finding that medication that works is a wonderful feeling. Pills aren't scary, and I hate that it's thought to be necessary to paint them as these addictive little tablets that you pop like candy to no avail while still feeling like you want to die. It creates a stigma against finding the right help for a real illness. I don't know, that's just what I took away from this.
If there is one that truly works...
Pills should be scary. They're real drugs, and they do things like mess with your heart rate. And your doctor may be too ill-informed to know what's happening and think you're nervous about taking a pill instead of that you just ingested something that is technically toxic and founded on an incomplete science filled with profits and social cues.
Nuclear Holocaust ya I was scared of my medicine too. I was pay attention to people are not docters. They were saying stuff like you won't get better or they are in for the money. Now I am on it and the world looks better I am not do down any more.
