Somebody told me today. He said, that Zoloft was proven to be more effective than placebo in females but not in males. I am male and i think Zoloft helps me. I am much better.

There are lots of skewed studies out there, and I have even read a study that was misinterpreted as saying placebos were as effective as SSRI's. After having convinced myself I didn't need meds, and consequently crashing despite my belief that I didn't need meds, I can say that they definitely are effective for me. I've proven that to myself the hard way, so I know they're more effective than placebos for me at least..... Take care, Dewayne -------------------- I'm not a complete idiot. Some parts are missing. Please don't drive me crazy. I can walk from here. If life is a joke, then I don't get it. I'm just mentally ill. It's the rest of the world that's crazy.
