Nor has any of my 5 kids, any of their spouses, or my sister. Not sure where the fuck someone would get that we're all on anti-depressants. Only 10% of Americans are, which is pretty high, but not as high as Iceland. And Australia isn't far behind us. 9.4% of Australians are on anti-depressants, and 8.2% of UK residents are.
Though, people do have to take into account that 10% of americans is a lot more people than 8.2% of UK people, as population size difference and all.
But still, valid point. I'd be severely worried if all americans were on anti-depressants.
