(35,568 posts)because I see the insensitivity. One of the strongest fighters I know is on medication for depression so again, I apologize.
And pot lol, I don't see smoking it as a problem but, here comes the but, too many people are living in their own bubbles, either unaware or uncaring of what's going on around them as long as they can get their bills paid. I noticed that every time I'd fly back to the states and it bugs the dickens out of me. During a really low point in my life, a good friend going through a similar crisis suggested I take antidepressants and explained they'd take the edge off when I asked how they helped her. So that's all I personally know about antidepressants, that they take the edge off.
I don't think we're angry enough yet in our country. Where the correlation is, if there's even one, and who's affected how, I don't know. Speaking just for myself, when I get stoned, I'm not as angry. And when I drink, protesting is the last thing on my mind. That's why I didn't interpret that as a slur.
