I think that medications that keep people from hurting themselves are a good thing.
But working on the issues that cause the depression is really important. Pills can help but can become a way of life and a barrier to moving on to mental health.
On a lighter note, this time of year it's key to get outdoors and get some sun or at least natural light to prevent Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
I have bantam chickens now. They are 1/2 the size of regular chickens. The roosters attack but just kinda bounce off my shins!!
I used to have a mean, full sized rooster named Tyson, Named for Mike Tyson, the fighter, but also for the chicken "products" you find in the grocery stores. Tyson met his end during the terrible fox raid last November at my ex's farm.
