On Prozac for 10 years

I had a conversation with someone recently who has been on Prozac (on and off) for 10 years.

10 years? Really?

Why?

This person had had a traumatic childhood and some adult problems too but a drug strategy for 10 years?

Why not really work to resolve the underlying issue? It might take a year (or it might just take a few months) but the standard medical interventions seem big on buzz words/buzz phrases and drugs whilst being woefully short on resolutions.

Hypnosis, EFT, life coaching any or all of these would would surely be preferable to masking the symptoms. Or is there no money/appetite for this style of intervention?
