it is not a cure but more of a trial-and-error experiment, which might help but can also result in severe side effects, and that other options are available

Exactly. If antidepressants help you then fuckin' more power to you, I love that for you, have all the helpful drugs you want.

But patients need a lot more information to actually give informed consent, and need more choice and help and time, where genuinely useful alternatives are also available. Instead western society hugely pushes drugs as "the" solution for a one-size-fits-all answer.
