The philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre once took an injection of mescaline, in an attempt to pull himself out of a depression. Soon he found himself ambling about the streets of Paris, pursued by imaginary giant lobsters. But he wasn’t depressed anymore.

 Try it. Try running in a panic from giant lobsters; you sure as hell will not feel depressed.
