at least one of every four women in America is now on psychiatric medication, as opposed to one of every seven men,

Holy sh*t! This is worse than I thought.
I wonder what percentage of them are liberals.

Anybody who isn’t depressed with the Administration is definitely sick and in desperate need of medication. /s

With all these multiple murders taking place. It’s my feeling that certain drugs are involved that create very very bad side effects. The connection is not guns but the type of drugs these people are taking.

Back in 2008 I was going through some tough times, and my doctor asked me if I was depressed. I told him, “Doc, I’m making half of what I was a few years ago, I’m going through a foreclosure and a bankruptcy, and my wife is talking about getting a divorce. I’d have to be crazy not to be depressed!”

He agreed. And no, I didn’t start taking any meds.

my mother in law had polio as a child and walks with a pronounced limp....in her mid 80’s, she’s broken her hip on the limp side three times, had to go to rehab and came through like a trooper...the last time it happened, a few years ago, was during the holidays...she was upset and they gave her an “anti-depressant” which made her twice as depressed and twice as cuckoo...those things can be BAD NEWS!!!

There are more than 15 million people walking around on mind altering prescription drugs. Think about that...and zombies.

According to Holland, “women are nearly twice as likely to receive a diagnosis of depression or anxiety disorder than men are.”""""""...........

Women know this, and it is not just Liberals. I know a lot of conservative woman who always seem depressed for some reason. Maybe it is to get attention, I don't know, but some I think just like to visit their Drs.

I know some who even take their DOGS to the dog shrink. No kidding. A discussion about their poor depressed poochie is a hoot, these idiot women are serious as a heart attack about that.

This is main reason I never want a WOMAN president.

Caucasian identity is associated with taking SSRIs? Has it helped anyone remove the odious pallor from their complexion yet?

The first sign of depression is writing a story about depression

Take the reason for the depression away and you won’t need an anti-depressant.

they give these things out like candy, and push htem on patients like drug dealers- they pressure people into going on them

Why? So that they can put you on a ‘watch list’ for the upcoming ‘psychiatric requirements’ for gun ownership

Of course not, the antidepressents are also used to treat anxiety disorders.

My two cents. 1. A much more effective treatment for me is having Ramona, she is here now, clean my how every two weeks. She makes me stay on top of bills and paperwork. Costs 60 dollars a session, much less than scripts and shrink to prescribe them. 2. Other use for tricyclic antidepressants is neuropathy caused by diabetes and central nerve damage from pressure on nerves. I do think that is worth a try when symptoms or neuropathy are debilitating.

This comes from a mechanistic understanding of the human organism. “Man is a mass of electrical impulses and chemicals “. People with that primitive understanding of human nature try to solve human problems with chemicals or electrical currents.
