Thank you for this post. I've resisted antidepressants my whole life, with a family that wanted me to be fixed somehow. I only relented once and was put on Wellbutrin. I plunged into a depth of anger-sadness I'd never felt before. I dropped it almost immediately. But, you're diagnosing the problem well. Consumer-based society needs constant consumption for corporate growth. Talking about this and questioning this should be more frequent.

big pharma is the root of all evil imo.
As a parent, I could not have said it any better.
