A recent finding reported on NBC News that the use of anti-depressants has increased by 400% in the past three years was more than alarming. It is estimated that 1 in 10 American adults are taking mood altering medication. There are proposals that grief be treated as a disorder and treated with drugs. And they believe they are the beacon of democratic society.
Something has gone wrong. The aspiration for a perfect life is embodied in the opening credits for the Real Beverly Hills Housewives with the statement... 'Most people think I've got it all...but I want more.'
I like the Real Beverly Hills Housewives. I can imagine being a neighbour and watching my over the top neighbours through my twitching curtains. I do not live in the United States but I like watching American News and Lifestyle. Now that guilty pleasure is actually disturbing me. Perhaps I need medication.
