Maybe normal psychology like talk therapy and CBT doesnt work on NPCs because they don't have an internal dialogue. Therefore they need anti-depressants.
Also, Socrates challenged people's ideas by means of dialogue. People got so angry at him that they executed him. Maybe the Socratic dialogue was so triggering to the Athenians because most of them were NPCs who cannot internally dialogue.
Do those people even get depressed? They're the ones who live in ignorance and escapism, in drinking and MUH DICKing.

Anti-Depressants are for anyone who's dopamine receptors are completely fucked up from unhealthy food, porn, drugs and just unfulfilled lives. A PC can fall into these traps when they're young and naive.
Hunter Martinez
An NPC would probably become depressed if his job was taken away. A working horse or dog becomes depressed if it's job is taken away.

I take Anti-Depressants to kill the voice in my head. Feels great,but, I kinda miss my voice sometimes. Can't really think well without it.
Juan Moore
"Inner monologue" or "inner voice" is a poor choice of terminology.
Juan Wilson
At first I thought NPCs was tismspeak for normies. Now after the inner voice thread I'm not so sure. Most vices and hedonism is for normies yeah. Delaying pleasure or getting a kick from beauty and order is the philosopher's way. Most vice is bred from ignorance.

anti-depressants makes a Person an NPC

Antidepressants would have killed my awakening. Yeah it's gayer than two men sodomizing each other to call it that, but there is no better word. Wasn't really an NPC before beating depression, but letting myself hit absolute bottom, experience something akin to ego death, and realizing what actually motivates me was the best thing to ever happen.
If an NPC can survive that without suiciding, they would almost certainly develop consciousness. Antidepressants are like taking Advil so you can walk on a torn ligament. It only helps you ignore the problem rather than realize how bad things really are and make radical changes to fix it.
