What what part of that increase was on some antidepressants that have suicidal thoughts as a side effect?  Giving kids antidepressants has dramatically increased.   

Prescribed for the right diagnosis and anti depressants such as SSRI’s are very safe and effective. The problem comes when they’re prescribed for the wrong diagnosis which tends to happen too often when family doctors are doing the prescribing. It’s no different than anti psychotic medication. Given to a paranoid schizophrenic and the person regains the ability to normalize behavior and thinking. Given for the wrong diagnosis and it’ll create problems.

It literally went up a lot in young girls due to online bullying. 

There’s more to it then that. 

Theres an over usage of mood stimulating drugs being used in the mainstream society. Teens and adults. 

Society wants everything on social media yet majority can’t see the problem it’s caused.
