ANTIDEPRESSANTS - anybody open minded? Doctor pushes it on you, family dont even wanna hear about it...

I feel like in the world, there are only 2 groups of people. 1stgroup is totally against antidepressants and 2nd one totally for it. Nobody wants to listen to your opinion and help you to decide for yourself, understanding that you have an opinion too and as much as you need help you also dont want to be pushed into something you are not comfortable with.

I grew up in society where antidepressant donttake any place. everybody against it and with an open mind, you can see WHY. Even Psychology doesnt have answers for mental ilnesses and depressions - wether its psychological, biological or what comes first.... and taking some "chemistry" to work in my brain? Thats so not natural, right, its dangerous and...I dont know.. but of course, when you have a depression and you truly dont know what else to do with yourself, just want to stop it and there is nothing that helps you, you have to consider antidepressants - maybe they can really help you. but then, I talk to my doctor and counsellorand they just pushantidepressants on me. when I share my concerns, there is no place for them... when I tell my family what Im going through, they dont understand and of course they dant want to hear of the antidepressants... I just need someone that is open minded, who listnes me and dont push me into neither - taking or not taking them.

Im so hopeless. On one side I wish to take them, on the other, I dont want to... why does nobody understand and everybody wants me to do what THEY think is the best and THE ONLY truth....

They're definitely addicting, I don't think I'll ever function without them
