Oooh, two seasons! That's a lot of time, boy oh boy~
I didn't get the impression Octavia believes Stolas takes antidepressants because he hates her. The way I interpreted it was that (despite her verbally claiming otherwise) she knows Stolas loves her, but the reality she's being confronted with is that, despite her father's claim that she's the happiest thing that's happened to him, that alone wasn't enough to assuage his own misery. The antidepressants were evidence of that misery, and with or without taking them, he was still miserable even with Octavia in his life.
That makes sense. I get the feeling if she stayed with her mom and uncle, it'd be because she has nowhere else to go. :( Maybe she'll try running away, but we'll see what happens. Her going back to the human world could be interesting. :o
