um, I did. And I have been to Russia of 21st century. Maybe it's somethign about Russia. Never had country trigger me soooo. Not even Kosovo.
And... at certain point comrades tried to medicate not liking living in Russia. doubleplusungood.

Of course, some people would medicate Franz Kafka. I still maintain he was not depressed clinically, he was just pariah who sensed incoming doom).

And ditto at what Anika says. Sometimes people kill themselves on meds. Some OD with the very prescribed meds.
And what bothers me that suicide is considered just as symptom of MI these days. Not symptom of something more... global. At least we don't call monks of Vietnam or Jan Palach and Jan Zajic mentally ill.
