Lots of people these days are zombies, taking all of the above. And of those, at least 80% female.
A lot of people are taking toxic stuff.
This explains a lot. Many of our clients are just .... not right. One woman speaks in a monotone and perseverates. Another is waaaaay too cheerful and talks really really fast. Then there’s my SIL who is typically normal, but occasionally calls me and talks and talks and talks. The last time this happened I timed her. She talked (actually bitched and complained) for 20 minutes without one sound from me. I finally broke into her monologue at the 20 minute mark (I was going to be late for work). This just isn’t normal.
