i know this is controversial in highly medicalized societies, but this is a good plan overall.

we still don't know why and how antidepressants work. we know they work, but we don't know why. and hell, to be honest, we still have a poor grasp of how depression works.

a priority is tho to limit reliance of the populace on "moms' little helpers", that might give dependency, and financial drain. and finding a humanist way to deal with depressions and its symptoms.

i feel american society is not ready for it, popping pills is way easier, but it is important to start somewhere.
