The evidence points to a steady increase in the use of prescription psychiatric medications and recreational drugs to control depression and anxiety. The excessive prescription and overuse of psychiatric medications reduces personal self-assessment to determine the cause of depression and to take responsible actions to improve our health. Social, political, cultural and economic conditions contribute to our declining mental health along with the loss of traditional morality and personal accountability. We have become dependent on quick fixes based on immediate gratification rather than real solutions. Drug companies benefit from our growing disinclination to seek immediate gratification.
