According to Professor Gordon Parker AO, a professor of psychiatry at UNSW and the founder of the Black Dog Institute, <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright \" src=\"http:\/\/www.robertscottbell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/antidepressa-768x461.jpg\" alt=\"{photo should be here}\" width=\"211\" height=\"127\" \/>the answer is irrelevant\u2014because we\u2019re asking the wrong question.\u00a0In a\u00a0<i>British Journal of Psychiatry<\/i>\u00a0editorial published this month, Parker challenges the findings of several studies that analysed the outcomes of multiple clinical trials of\u00a0<a class=\"textTag\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/tags\/antidepressants\/\" rel=\"tag\">antidepressants<\/a>. Collectively, these trials spanned hundreds of thousands of patients who received either antidepressants or placebos to treat a diagnosis of\u00a0<a class=\"textTag\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/tags\/major+depression\/\" rel=\"tag\">major depression<\/a>.\u00a0The aggregated trial data were interpreted in the earlier studies as indicating that antidepressants were no more effective than placebos, leading to widespread public confusion about the validity of these drugs, while the most recent analysis argued for their effectiveness.\u00a0The problem, Parker argues, is that trialling antidepressants against a target condition of major\u00a0<a class=\"textTag\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/tags\/depression\/\" rel=\"tag\">depression<\/a>\u00a0produces, if not guarantees, flawed results. \u2018Major depression\u2019 is an umbrella term that refers to a range of depressive illnesses with varying causes, trajectories and treatment responses, rather than to a single condition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-6028313\/Father-bans-children-taking-medicine-vaccines.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Father bans his children from taking medicine and vaccines<\/strong><\/a> &#8211; A father has defended his decision to ban his children <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft \" src=\"http:\/\/www.robertscottbell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/4ED8802900000578-0-image-a-47_1533462111741.jpg\" alt=\"{photo should be here}\" width=\"228\" height=\"152\" \/>from taking medicine \u2013 including antibiotics, painkillers and even Calpol.\u00a0Richard Lanigan and his wife Janette have never given daughters Molly and Isabelle, 14, and Eloise, 11, medication and say their immune systems are better for it.\u00a0The couple, who live in south-west\u00a0<a id=\"mol-d6572450-989e-11e8-ba5a-3fa4cc833c28\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/london\/index.html\">London<\/a>, even kept one baby away from hospital when doctors told them she was likely to die from whooping cough \u2013 and believe the natural nutrients in Janette\u2019s breast milk kept her alive.\u00a0The girls never took part in their immunisation programme as babies and have never even had a Lemsip.\u00a0The only time the three children had vaccinations is when they were immunised before going holiday this summer. Mr Lanigan says avoiding modern medicine is the best thing to do because it maximises his girls\u2019 immune systems.
