    It’s wild to me that it feels like we’ve thrown in the towel on creating conditions good for human health mentally. Im not always the most chipper of people, but I thought it was wild that Ive had multiple coworkers casually and openly discuss how hard adjusting to ssri medication has been for them.

    Life sucks? Stressed? Hate your life and or job? Take a pill…

    Im not discounting that the medication actually helps a lot of individuals. I just hate that it has become the blanket remedy to unhappy mental states. Even eating healthy, positive social relationships, and exercising gets written off quickly.
