Newsweek: “Antidepressants do work, and many more people should take them: Major international study”
The Independent: “Doctors should prescribe more antidepressants for people with mental health problems, study finds”

They quote the study’s prestigious Oxford authors claiming their research proves millions more people should be taking antidepressants and that holding back is like denying needed treatment to patients with hypertension or cancer.

YIA, what you state seems to be a major problem. For some, the underlying issue is sin. But the mental health industry is based on anti-God philosophies, making it hard to trust what they have to say.

I'm pretty sure many of us know someone who is a sociopath, or bi-polar, pride and paranoid, and struggle on what to do with them, sedating them and making them quiet is really tempting, but also clearly that is not getting to the root of the problem, sin. And to fix that, we have to wait upon the Lord to act, and He may never act on their hearts.
