I believe they are only needed when you have had a black mood for more than just a few weeks and it won't budge. Everyone has mood swings but with depression you really feel like you don't want to live anymore--not necessarily that you would take your life but you just want life to end. Nothing is enjoyable anymore. A lot of times it is a genetic trait; for example, it really runs in my family, mom, sisters, cousins, aunts. For me I'm pretty sure it's not just a PCOS trait because my sister doesn't have PCOS but does have depression.
