Why is it that after turning their lives and wills over to doctors, those diagnosed with depression never get better, and ultimately only get worse?

Anyone suffering from what clinicians call depression has been trapped inside their own head, lost in thought and seduced by a force of will separating them from their natural born integrity.  It is a somnambulant state of being where right seems wrong, wrong seem right and life becomes a frustrating, anger-motivated chore.
