Antidepressants Are Depressing Me
Click below to get Dick in your Ear and listen to the podcast of this article.
Of all the women I know who are on antidepressants, 100% of them have told me.
When it comes to women and their stupid mental problems that I don’t give a fuck about, I wish patients had to respect the doctor/client confidentiality agreement as well. That would not only make my life a lot less whiny, but it would also make every first date happening in Utah on any given Friday night about two awkward silences smoother.
If you weren’t aware, Utah has the highest per capita female usage of prescription antidepressants in the world. No one knows why, but it’s probably because Utah is extremely religious, and we all know women take to religion about as well as they take to using whiskey as a lubricant. It stings you for a minute, it stings her for a lifetime.
Men are better than women.
Men do not air our dirty laundry all over the place like we’re doing the world a favor.
First of all, men have an infinite number of classifications for “used” before we get to “dirty”. That’s how we stay attracted to women — no matter how many kids they have. Used does not equal dirty. Just because a pair of jeans are in the washing machine, doesn’t mean they’re dirty. Maybe you just sat on a Gummi Bear. It’s not like you shit yourself.
Secondly, men are better than women at taking prescription antidepressants.
I have known a friend of mine for two and a half years. Just this weekend, I found out he had a kid. I am manlighted to say that at this rate, I won’t know about his Xanax addiction until a woman is sitting in the Oval Office — which will be never.
Women can’t shut their mouths about what they shove down their throats. Zoloft, Lustral, Effexor, Wellbutrin, Zyban, Cymbalta, Lexapro, Paxil, Aropax, Cutting, Anorexia; to women those are all just another word for attention.
Why else would the depression rate for women be double that of men? It’s not like any woman ever got rich as shit in her 30’s and then realized she married way under their league. Do they have a drug for that?
Medicare should cover divorces.
Since all women were born with an unlimited debtors account at the Bank of Vagina Fargo, I see absolutely no reason why they should ever be depressed. Other than the reason that they fucking love being depressed.
For women, depression is a time machine into a world of being a good for fuck teenager, who doesn’t know shit about shit except that the refrigerator is magic, the day starts at 2PM, and money is something Republicans invented because George Bush hates black people.

Good post, Dick.
The point about airing dirty laundering couldn’t be more spot on!
I see and hear this shit all the time. But I suspect it’s all part of the “I need constant attention” thing that a lot of chicks have. Whether it’s flashing their tits on a Girls Gone Wild video, arguing for more money on the basis of “employment equity,” or blowing a gang of black dudes in a porn flic, it’s all the same thing: “Look at me!”
Ah, fuck, huh? I gotta go.

Me too. I expected a smoky worldly-wise baritone. Not a nasally Matthew Broderick sound-a-like. Site was better before you opened your mouth. Doing podcasts makes it look like you’re looking for attention or something…oh wait, only women do that, right.
You know, you’re kinda funny, but I still don’t like you. Though I wasn’t sure till I heard your voice.

Aww, the sex toy has a mouth on her. Someone needs a good plugging - his voice is manly as fuck, and you’re jealous as fuck because it isn’t yours.

I don’t agree with the possible connection between religion and depression.
Women that are depressed are a serious problem in no small part because they are likely mothers.
People that are genuinely mentally ill need care. That’s about all I have to say on this subject.
@Doubt stop calling her a sex toy in this one serious post. Take her and the issue seriously.
@Female Take the issue for once seriously and stop acting as you do. This is a red flag issue for mankind. Making garbage jokes and ‘gay’ attacks about it makes you look like an idiot.

Very well, let’s consider this. If Dick was vying for attention, wouldn’t he have his likeness plastered all over the site? It’s a simple issue of practicality - he is making podcasts, and adding a limitless amount of man-class in doing so.
If you do something, you do it right.

Antidepressants, cutting yourself, bulimia, anorexia - all may be used to garner attention, ironically enough. This is a simple matter of the double-standard taken to the extreme. If a man does any of those things and tries to cry out for attention, he is mocked and jeered at. If a young girl does so, she is praised and showered with attention and affection, effectively encouraging the behavior to continue.
I may just be stupid in that I don’t see the magical pony achieved by this, but from my perspective it appears to be a lose-lose situation.

Aw, Dick. Catherine doesn’t like you. And she was oh-so-ladylike in telling you. Are you devastated?

Women put their ugly mug on the internet for attention. We didn’t like you before you got here and then like most women you completely overlooked the sign that says “No women allowed.” But we knew that would bring yor dumbasses in here.
Women suck as people.

Women sure do have a lot of needs. My last wife used to always start a sentance with that shitty word; “We need to talk”, “You need to take out the trash”, “I need a new car”, “you need to quit dressing barnyard animals up in womens clothing”
After hearing about all of her needs for the last 13 fucking years, I came to the conclusion that I had a need too.
“I NEED A DIVORCE”.
Chris, I couldn’t agree with you more.

I have… experiance… with antiD’s. It is always paramount to make sure that if you are taking them, you DAMN WELL better be taking some sort of psychological counseling. If for no other reason than accountability.
Unfortunatly, every woman I know (quite literally) is on antiD’s. Yet, none of them have professional help of any kind. Their reason? “Well, it just makes me uncomfortable…” Generally speaking, antiD’s are a relatively new science. Prozac, Lexipro, Lithium, etc… and as we all know, science continually disproves itself… mistakes happen, we’re human.
Unfortunatly, no one knows exactly what the medication will do to you. It “might”…. emphasis on might… do as it says it will. It may only slightly help, it may make you sleep all day… or in my case, turn you into a suicidal psycho who sat in his dorm naked, puking on himself all day, listening to Cradle of Filth and proclaiming “God hates us all”.
True story.
I never exhibited ANY behavioral traits like that prior to the medication. Luckily, my therapist called to check up on me, my parents told him what was up and he IMMEDIATLY pulled me.
There are plenty of stupid, horrible habits that girls can take up with reckless abandon, F-ing up their lives as much as they please. Good on you for it, and most of us don’t care. But I know that a lot of women (and a few men) take antiD’s for attention and sympathy. Trust me on this… besides suicide, it’s the WORST possible way to get sympathy.
If you do need them, (make sure you actually do, and it’s not being prescribed to extort insurance payments) you had BETTER have a psychological professional’s guidance…. PRIOR to the prescription.
I fully recognize that Female is going to completely disregard everything I said, and do it just to spite me. This is not a F-ing joke.

Oh… and one more thing. I successfully switched meds, took them for the prescribed time, took some follow-through counseling for 6 months…
It’s been two years since, and life has been completely normal. There are benefits to the system if you use it correctly.

I am not on anti-depressants. So not quite 100%…

Those should be prescription drugs. Like diazepam and other benzodiazepines are. Here.
Cause… you know… it’s not the inmates running the asylum nor the pharmaceutical and private medical services cartel driving the health ministry like they are in the US…

Also, psychology and psychotherapy are mostly junk science. Far too much of science is anything but.

Yes Chris, because a woman blowing a gang of dudes in a porn flic is only wrong if the guys are black.

@sonyad: All the rx’s mentioned by Savant are available by prescription only in the US. However, after the prescription is filled, there is no requirement that the patient receive ongoing counseling or monitoring by a professional. I believe Savant’s point is that the recommendation should be made by a psychiatric professional, rather than a general practitioner, and that the patient should have regular follow-up by a specialist during the period he/she is taking the medication as well.

I’m amazed at the amount and variety of medicines women shove down their throats in the US, not just antidepressants. Well, we have their mothers to thank for that!!! With a cabinet full of “solutions” baby-princess-in-training learned that all she had to do was to throw a tantrum and mommy would run to her with food and/or a medicine from the magic cabinet.
Fat women? Thank their mothers!
Sick (or they think they are sick) Hypochondriac women? Thank the mothers again!!!

Psychiatric professional?
Oh! You mean those silly buggers that make you lie down and sap the life out your wallet by the hour doing nothing but grunting acknowledgment to the odd sentence or two of your monologue and sometimes retorting with a tautological inquiry - so you know they’re listening?
I see.

I don’t know about you, zogmama, but my doc has to renew the prescription. And believe me, he won’t do it if I’m not keeping EVERYONE up-to-date,
@sonyad: Have you ever been to a “psychiatric professional”?? Judging from what you wrote, I’d say no. Or if you were, you managed to draw a quack.

I’d be interested in seeing a study of people (men and women) on anti-depressants, and correlating their anti-depressant use to the effect of feminism on their life. I strongly suspect that there is a significant connection. The trauma of growing up in and trying to exist in an insane society is enough to depress anyone.
That being said, I do think that, as with just about every medication, anti-d’s are way over-prescribed.
