    I find this very believable and I think it might get worse (conspiracy anyone?) it seems to me it is a real problem and due to what I've read in the past year. I have been dubious of the psychiatric pill industry for a long time, these folks seem quick to prescribe powerful meds and just send people back out into society with little monitoring. The game has been changed this year with the new DSM which seems designed to diagnose more people as having some kind of psychological problem which will be easily treated with more pills and will generate more $$$ for the industry. I saw this article earlier this year which gave cause for concern http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/12/op...=pl-share&_r=0 And this recent article seems to confirm that things went badly and their primary diagnosis book is deeply flawed intended to produce more $$$ and more diagnosis of mental problems http://www.huffingtonpost.com/allen-...b_2227626.html remember this when you are talking to that amateur psychiatrist, your primary care physician

    Yup, been meaning to post this stuff for a while, remember your doctor is evaluating your mental state while he is talking to you, it's good to be
