drug companies and doctors in cahoots - there is no doubt real clinical depression, where people for absolutely no real reason are completely unable to function, exists. definitely a medical disorder still not fully understood. but the vast majority of depression that gets diagnosed today - just lazy doctors eager to diagnose a complaining patient with something and of course the drug companies are the benificiary when the lazy doctor writes out a script for the popular anti-depressant of the month.

why are more people complaining and thinking they are depressed - high unrealistic expectations that they can't meet - creates anxiety and depression. we are a sick culture and getting sicker and weaker mentally all the time.

none of these popular mental illnesses that we have today, clinical depression, anxiety disorder, ADD - there are no laboratory tests for them. Psychiatrists create and name these illnesses, according to a group of symptoms they decide on make up the illness.

They all exist but are waaaaaaaaaaaaay over diagnosed - most people who get diagnosed with them are just not well adjusted people for whatever reason, they have no real brain chemisty problem.
