I would argue no. I spent 3 years talking just about every anti depressant on the market. Luckily i found a GP with enough smarts to get me some talk therapy, which i might add cured my depression - not the drugs. Unless you are suffering from some permanent disorder like bi polar or schizophrenia, i don't think these drugs are necessary. GP's over prescribe them because it's the easier soultion.
