More than 61 million prescriptions for anti-depressants were issued in 2015 in England alone." This is almost the equivalent of one for every man, woman and child and constitutes a 92% increase since 2003" (Peter Gotzsche). Yet overwhelming evidence shows that prescription drugs don't work in the long term, and can actually make the problem worse - increased symptoms, and chilling side- effects are all too common.
