I kinda see the point. I mean, if 1% of the population has schizo-something and another 1% severe bipolar, maybe 1% psychotic depression or whatever...why are so many people on meds?Also...related point...if psychiatry is really about helping the mentally ill, why have so many shrinks given up on the severely mentally ill and also on people who use insurance?
I do think antidepressants often cause more problems for the more moderately, mildly ill than no treatment at all would...which translates into lost $$$ for the economy.
