Did medication work for you? - March 7th 2009, 10:17 PM

Well, I went to see a psychiatrist today and I got prescribed a pill for depression, it's called Lexapro. Apparently it's a newer medication that treats the depression faster. And I know that everyone's brain is different and it works for certain people but not for others, but is there any statistics or anything? Like just antidepressants in general, do they work for more people than not? I don't know much about the medication and they didn't tell me to much about it aside from the possible side effects and risks and all that.

But, I'm just wondering, for any antidepressant in general, is there any statistic for how many people are actually affected by them at all? Sorry if this was already asked anywhere, I couldn't find it on the forums.
