That has been true for about 1 year. It has been untrue for about 2 years, the first 2 years I have taken it. I think this means that taking by taking an antidepressant that has worked for 2 years, it means that this 1 year that has not been helping me is just due to the severity of my depression for that entire year, and the severity of my depression is just something I have to deal with until it is less again.

What the hell, I'll ask you this question: What do YOU think it means?
It could mean exactly what you said.

Quote:It could mean that your brain chemistry is all messed up from taking various drugs for years, and is in need of a reset. I'm just suggesting you look into it.
OMG, you do not understand the kind of person that I am at all.

It is extremely important to me that any belief that I have be logically justified. This entails doing any relevant research on the matter to know that it being logically justified is true.

So I have already "looked into it" and there is no possible world that could exist in which I would not have done so.

Of course not. I've known you for a few days and only through posts on the internet. We all make some guesses and assumptions on here.

That really doesn't make much sense. But if you've looked into it, all you needed to do was say, "Thanks, I've looked into those things."

What do you do?

I'm a hippy.

I know that sounds like a joke answer, but it's not. More or less I don't do anything for work. I travel around and rock climb. I pick up seasonal work. Normally I work in the order of 4-6 weeks a year. The rest of the year I live dirt cheap. I don't have a phone, or bills. I live off of around 7000$ a year nowadays, so when I make money I make it all at once. I used to live much cheaper than that, but I do like having money. But mostly I don't work. My life is about something other than making other people fat and rich and happy (except that they aren't happy.)

So there is obviously a world of difference between my lifestyle (which I honestly can't imagine living that differently) and being a CPA.

Mind you I was joking in my original post and I actually don't mean it as a value judgement on the way you live. There isn't anything wrong with being a CPA for you.

.......but personally if I woke up as one, I'd kiss the barrel of a shotgun.

Keep a 140-user network running. Been doing it for around 17 years, which is almost long enough, so I'll probably be doing something else next year.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
