I was wondering about anti-D's in particular. Folks can go through doldrums and be discouraged in their spiritual practice, triggered or different from other more common depression. Is there a place for anti-D's for the spiritual depression of Acedia? Or do those drugs while being as physiological mood-elevators dull spiritual experience? Anybody got experience that way with it? Seems there is a lot prescribing of anti-D's. For all ages. What is its (the anti-D drugs) impact on spiritual experiences aside from the depression? Just wondering, -Buck
