And this is exactly with this line of thinking that you get everyone including kids on antidepressant

i wonder how other countries cope without all that shit.

They cope by accepting higher rates of perinatal suicide.

My wife couldn’t sleep after giving birth to our second kid and it spiraled quickly into full blown psychosis. My wife still can’t sleep right nearly 10 years later.

There’s no shame in taking antidepressants. Some of us have brains that don’t work quite right and we should have more options than “cope” or self terminate.
