re: Damn, older white women are taking antidepressants at massive rates, comparatively.

Look at the stats on our country, especially compared with Europe and the rest of the West. We start pumping our 7 year olds with meth for ADD and don’t stop until 50-60 year olds are taking Valium, lithium, Prozac and a half dozen other mood altering drugs.

This nation is baby soft. All negative feelings must be suppressed and any discomfort must be met with a chemical solution. Don’t be responsible for your own feelings, America. Drug your way through it. Despite living in the most successful, prosperous, richest nation in world history, complain to your doctor about your crippling anxiety and solve your drama with pills.
