I don't care if you think this is normal.

I don't think this is normal, human being was not designed to be on powerful drugs 24/7
You all claim you support the troops, none of you gives a damn about troops and government least of all.

that seems inline with the general population since about 10% of all americans take anti depressants. americans are a pill popping bunch of weaklings.


Use of antidepressant drugs has soared nearly 400% since 1988, making the medication the most frequently used by people ages 18-44, a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows.Eleven percent of Americans ages 12 years and older took antidepressants during the 2005-08 study period, the authors write.
