Reply to comment by Fit-Rest-973 in New study (n=276) finds that a standardized mindfulness program is as effective as a common antidepressant (Escitalopram) at treating anxiety, with both treatments leading to about a 30% reduction in symptoms. by fotogneric
I mean its a tool like anything else, can be correctly or badly. Personally for me anti depressants were only thing that helped. Now on Strattera which is/was by far the best one I had.(and I tried about 9 or so different medications)
Though for specifically the elderly, I don't know people keep trying to keep old people to live longer, even if their quality of life is awful. Its just dumb.

I was on meds for ADHD. Wasn't diagnosed until I was 50. Thankfully outgrew the need for meds last year

Lexapro, which I felt was helpful. For the time I needed it. Adderall, which was essential, for when I was working
