I just don't see how talk therapy can cause changes in the brain or repair or anything. Maybe that happens all the time, with lots of things (eating pizza, interesting aromas, pretty women, being scared, etc.), we just aren't used to thinking that way. I can see how exercise can be a powerful antidepressant-but talk therapy? And yet I know, firsthand, that talk therapy works-at least for depression. I had no luck with it decreasing anxiety. I like the idea of Prozac as sort of a RapidGrow for the brain. :>} Wouldn't it be funny if the "neurotransmitter hypothesis" was dead wrong and AD's just produce/repair brain cells or some other mechanism? Considering all the things that the medical community was Absolutely Sure about for years that have turned out to be Absolutely False, it may be time for a little skepticism for any "certainty"...
