Yeah for sure.

I went to a concert and when I got threre i realized my wallet was empty and I knew there was $100 in it before. Had to take out more money to buy drinks and the night wasn't as good. Luckily I found the wad in my other pants when i got home.

those vaginal itch and herpes commercials make me depressed and confused, like how can those people be so happy? how can someone be smiling about having a dirty pussy? why are they rowing a boat when they have warts on their ass?

I've never had a bad experience with alcohol. I'm usually in a good mood when i start i guess and i never let shit get to me even when i'm sober. I guess that helps.

Some facts:
-25% percent of people in developed and developing countries will experience at least one pyschological disorder in their lives.
-By 2020, depression will become the second leading global cause of death and diasability, after heart disease.
-People from traditional cultures increase their risk of pyschological problems, including schizophrenia, by up to six times when immigrating to developed countries.

Interesting if you ask me, we are in the developed world how come we are so depressed and can't function, whats so depressing? but if you ask me for my opinion on why depression and ADD are in children/teen socities its caused by lack of co-ordination of going outside and staying inside playing games and watching T.V...go outside and get some fresh air.

Don't have as much stuff to keep yourself busy is my guess. I see people reach a point where they're stuck in a job that won't necessarily bring them any joy. They get money sure, but they don't put it to worthwhile use and feel their life is empty. Then they start questioning why they're here and start slowly losing it.

i think it's more because we are seeing ads for depression medication and being told more about it and it's basically been advertising the disease and infecting people falsely

I was mainly refering to Machette's statistics that were about developing countries in general....

I live in a developed/developing country as well, but it's not like the states is with all the hypochondriacs due to advertising. We don't have really any advertising for these types of drugs. I can't think of any.
