Peg Kerr's Journal

Yes, I think that's the prime problem with the slant of the article. The guy in the article isn't saying "depression is a good thing." he's saying "being happy all the time doesn't solve all your problems." which are two totally different things squashed into one article here. The examples of people he has who don't want to be on medication there are i think people who are right to feel that way. (I wonder almost if it's biased by the older anti-depressants, the ones that for many people did tend to sort of level everything off into neutrality.)
