Well looks like we can all throw out our soma because the news medias have a new slogan – anti depressants are no better than placebos. We’ve all been conned and we should just snap out of our dark prisons and face the light of day is the message for today folks. We ought to stop kidding ourselves because a new study has determined the futility of taking those little eenie weenie pills filled with blossoms of happy petals that shower serotonin receptors with insy winsy lies.

Lets just hope my Mother doesn’t hear about the placebo effect. She’ll have a field day – after all; fluorescent lights cause cancer and I’ll never hear the end of “I told you so”.

We’ll soon know the impact of this placebo assertion. If people just start hanging around (pun intended – I know its bad) you’ll know GlaxoSmithKline were right.

Long live the placebo!
