Every Democrat I know is on some of these drugs. They have some break with reality about their expectations in life and interactions with humans. Democrat party is basically a death cult (Jim Jones style) where they believe they have to not breed to ‘save the planet.’ Therefore, they multiply through indoctrination (media, universities, etc.).
Most well-balanced folks are married, with faith, with kids leading productive lives. In other words, Republican voters.
“You’re on to the right answer.”
Thanks. And note that ‘spank’ is a very subjective term. I didn’t say ‘hit’ or ‘whack’ the kid at that age, because that is abuse and that is far more than necessary to get the kid’s attention when they’re very young. But people now are conditioned to conflate the terms. In one parenting book I saw, but didn’t read, I looked up the term “spank” in the index, and it said “see ‘child abuse’ “. So that’s what we have now.
In in my early parenting days, I was surprised by how light of a tap it took to get their attention when they were very young...it was almost like they knew the message it meant, even without any pain. Now, as they go older, it did take a bit more.
Anyway, I don’t mind bursting the bubbles of new-age parents who think Dr. Spock is smarter than their grandparents, as it’s good that people get more opinions on parenting than just what the Left feeds them.
They didn’t have psych drugs that far back. Thorazine was the only major one. Instead they used electric shock therapy, insulin shock therapy, prefrontal lobotomy and other efforts.
“Question 2) How many babies in, say, Chad or Azerbaijan are on Prozac?”
Likewise, how many babies in those countries were spanked when they acted up? Also, same for US, 100 years ago.
“Instead they used electric shock therapy, insulin shock therapy, prefrontal lobotomy and other efforts.”
I suspect on far fewer people, and then go back another 100 years and unless they had some tree bark or something as a pysch drug, people simply had to suck it up.
Agree, but in Afghanistan, they give babies opium:

There used to be those little bottles of Paregoric. Some American mothers used it to make their babies stop crying or even just to make them go to sleep when they wanted them to sleep. Very convenient.
Almost? Women LOVE to talk about their illnesses. It's what they LIVE for.
I hope nobody here strikes little babies.
I though the Autism explosion might also be related to people waiting until later in life (30s instead of 20s) to have babies.
But you may be correct.
When my sons were younger, I told them that if, on a first date, the subject of her meds comes up, to wait five minutes, excuse yourself for the men’s room, go out the window, go home, take your name off the mailbox, change your phone number, and don’t go out for three months.
Never mind how I myself learned this lesson - but you can take it to the bank.
If you look at the mass shooters (the white ones that get all the attention), almost all of them were on these drugs.
Scientists have no idea the long-term effects of using psychotropic drugs. The stated risks per PDR of these drugs are suicidal and homicidal thoughts. Apparently, they can add “and actions” to the warnings.
One source on the topic:
It’s all good. Nobody spanking little babies :)
See posts #21 and #30
I think the problem is more the patients than the doctors.
The quality or education is really bad.
Many people would believe anything just because a doctor told him. They don’t have to do everything the doctors. They can reject stupid treatments and drugs that would make them crazy.
an older woman I knew, a nurse used to go to the bathroom and kitchen and examine all the meds.
Then make a decision whether she was staying the night (the permissive 70s)
probably borderline Personality disorder
There was a story out a couple of years ago that an advertising agency was hired to ‘create a need’ for one of these new drugs. “Life not perfect? Feeling sad about not accepting Christ as your Lord and Savior? Take this pill instead!”
Yes, the problem is that a ‘need’ is created by advertising. People lacking true joy in their life turn to doctors to give these drugs as a cure for their existential malaise.
Just like they’re now ‘creating the need’ for gender drugs. Figure out a profit center. Use media to manipulate the public into thinking they need something they don’t (puberty blockers and self-mutilation). Profit.
the first thing checked when a person is in a psych hosptial is their thyroid.
and with any mood disorder.
they suicided,
or they moved to the woods.
or they were killed.
get yourself off of that media.
Poisonous.
