It's significantly better now, because your daughter didn't get a real lobotomy. Which was the expected treatment for a young woman who misbehaves.
It's not typical to get antidepressants after a single meeting with a general practitioner. In fact, I don't even know if that can happen.
That being said, depression is real, and it does take lives. I've known many people who have successfully survived depression via SSRI's and no longer take them. That's the flip side you're not seeing. I've also seen unmedicated people take their lives.
I would argue that you're doing the same thing. You're hand waving and gaslighting people who were/are helped by SSRIs. You're appealing to a worst-case scenario, where someone who does not have depression is immediately prescribed medication (incredibly rare, in fact not sure if this can happen). And you're claiming a slippery slope by extrapolating this to other mental health issues and psychiatry as a whole.
