My experience is that meds take the symptoms away. You no longer feel sad, but you are still "depressed". Kind of like pain medication takes the pain away, but your leg is still broken.

I experienced depression as symptom of a deeper "illness" of the brain that needs to be cured with psychotherapy. If it wasn't for that I'd still make the same mistakes again and again that made me depressed in the first place.
