This video explores the question of just how effective and necessary antidepressant medications actually are. The video features a review conducted by Dr. Irving Kirsch, which concluded that antidepressants are not more effective than several other approaches in any but the most severe cases of depression, and suggests that for many cases of depression other forms of treatment should be used. In the video, other clinical theorists take issue with the study’s conclusions.
