TwitterFacebook

A prescription for an antidepressant is hope. It can also be a guessing game. 

"Do I feel different? Do I feel better?" Nausea, weight gain, and sexual side effects — those can hit right away. But it can take weeks to feel a change in mood, then another few weeks to tell if an antidepressant is actually doing any good.

Now imagine this future: You walk into a psychiatrist's office. They swab inside your cheek, or put sensors on your head, and then prescribe you the right drug. No trial and error. No false starts. Just an antidepressant that works with minimal side effects.
