Placebo effectActually they led to a marked decrease in my stomach issues, which were caused by my anxiety and depression.
Also led to a big decrease in my road rage.
drug trials show that antidepressants are barely distinguishable from a placebo (dummy pill) when it comes to treating depression. Also, antidepressants appear to have a generalised emotion-numbing effect which may influence people’s moods, although we do not know how this effect is produced or much about it.
