Shez, those ads are really becoming so ridiculously overdone, exaggerated. The script reads right off of a "You might be depressed" flyer. I don't think the pharms will be happy until everyone is taking a handful something to fatten the pharm's wallets.
When you read about some drug's lifeline, it is interesting. They can't sell enough of a drug that was developed for one set of symptoms, so they make up a diagnosis to sell it for. (This is how Restless Leg Sydrome was born. It was also a dud; where did all the commercials for that go...?)
Designer drugs. Funny how there is a drug to counteract the side effect of another drug. Whatta racket.
I know many are helped, I'm not at all negating that. But I think the pharmaceutical industry is .. something else.
