Why It’s a Bad Idea to Use Botox as a Cure for Depression
I recently read that Botox is being used to treat depression. At first I thought this might be a joke, but it’s true. In an article in Psychology Today, Eva Ritvo, M.D. said “…Botox may be an effective treatment for depression.”
After I thought about it, I realized that Botox could relieve symptoms of depression. Symptoms is the key word here.
I am going to tell you why I think this treatment works and why you might want to stay away from it.
