It's hard to believe there was ever a time when Americans
were incapable of overcoming depression
without the aid of chemistry.
Such a time there was, though, and it was only as recently as 1951
that it became medically possible to relieve the otherwise-crippling effects
of depression. Drug companies weren't as savvy then as they are now (it was
estimated that fewer than 100
Americans in a million would benefit from anti-depressants), so such drugs as
Isoniazid,
iproniazid,
and Imipramine
were more or less ignored.
