Why are antidepressants so much more widespread in developed countries?


Such as? Most probably a lack of counselling infrastructure.


Why are they needed more than in underdeveloped countries?

Maybe ‘substance abuse’ seems an exaggerated term to you because you don’t view it as doing any harm to your mind but it does. You're obviously used to talking about it to people who agree with you and so believe it’s an ‘intelligent’ choice of drug. Maybe it is compared to alcohol, but it’s still a drug that impairs your brain in some way. You see it as a helpful impairment, which is fair enough, antidepressants are helpful but I wouldn’t want people to rely on them or stay on them for years and years, would you?
Cannabis is just another way of self medicating so that people can escape their reality for a while, it stops people being ‘present’, lucid or stable. Long term studies have not been done yet. But what I’ve seen of people who’ve never/hardly ever smoked or drank compared to those who have is a world of difference in mental drive and capabilities.


Why, would you not want to see folks needing to stop taking antidepressants ? Do you feel the same about-folks with diabetes or thyroid issues?


What?

Antidepressants are a sticking plaster, they don’t address the underlying mental health issues which can be dealt with in other ways, that don’t involve medication.
Depends which type diabetes you mean, one can be turned around by changing your lifestyle, ask rollup about that.
Thyroid issues are about hormone release and would depend on the health of the gland, a person would probably need to take medication for that all their life.


Which mental health issues don't need any medication?
