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

There are more of them than than the rest of the groups. By % would be a better comparison.

They are bored. The human race was not meant to sit around all day.

I sell life insurance and at LEAST 50% of the folks I quote are on antidepressants and/or anxiety medication.

One interesting thing I’ve also noticed: almost every lesbian couple I work with (especially those on the west coast) is overweight, diabetic, and on antidepressants AND anxiety meds.

They live in a utopia bubble that isn't what they thought it wound be without medical assistance. Instead of figuring out reality.....just dope up.

Only going to get worse considering this trend is still relatively new.

Finally realizing no one gives a shite about their faux white-guilt induced outrage/activism.

This is easily explained by the notion that women are just miserable creatures.

"Raising a family and caring for a household is oppressive, go be a marketing VP, treat yourself first and work 50 hours a week in a city you can't afford for real fulfillment! Know your worth girl, don't settle!"

*antidepressant use for middle aged women skyrockets*

Completely coincidental, no doubt

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.

Antidepressants have a LOT if off-label uses that skew usage too much to assume mental issues from graphs like this.

I’m a broker/producer and just wrapped up 6/1 renewal meetings this week and can confirm that it’s a startling statistic. Top rx spends, regardless of client types, are always anti-depressant/anxieties, diabetics, and hypertension. Oddly enough, the weirdest trend we share this year was an uptick in osteoarthritis spend in rx and med. oddly enough, they all related. Lazy and obese people get depressed. arthritis, diabetes, and hypertension.
