Catholics are encouraged to lead healthy, fulfilling, lives filled with grace. If you suffer from depression and your doctor prescribes anti-depressants then you should take them as they will help you lead a healthy life.
While some medical procedures and drugs are prohibited for Catholics (e.g. abortion or contraception), anti-depressants are allowed.

How do we become living witnesses for your catholic faith?
By simply living and proclaiming what you witness. Don't worry about being Catholic or even your faith for that matter -- it often hinders people from seeing the world for what it really is. Just take a look around, tell people what you see occurring, and how that makes you feel. And most important, if you want to change something -- do it. Do not pray or expect others to do things for you...take action!

Why does the Catholic Church discriminate against people who are non-Catholic?
The Catholic Church does not discriminate against non-Catholics. However, there is still much intolerance of Catholics by non-Catholics throughout the world as evidenced by this question. I have been a Catholic all my 67 years and have never heard a single word from a member of the Catholic clergy against non-Catholics. Catholics are secure in their faith and feel no need to criticize others who are not secure in their own beliefs. However, today, alone, I have read at least 20 new questions in this category that all have an anti-Catholic tone.
