> My personal experience is that medication (including Lexapro) and therapy do not work. When this happens, the patient is described as having "atypical depression." You can't blame the medical professionals for taking this approach. The alternative would be to describe themselves as "useless." Better to let the patient take the heat for being "atypical".

Hi.
I was going to write a long reply to this post, but decided against it. Let me just say one thing: the author of the post is ignorant to the definition of the term "atypical depression".
