I wrote a similar article years ago. Best guess is that there are dozens - maybe even hundreds - of others (these are a few I remembered off the top of my head)....

It's horrible..!
All the unpronouncable names for what are basically all the same drug..!
Talk about "over-medicated"...In the USA, children who can just about toddle are started on this filth...
How do the executives sleep at night, knowing that their miraculous pills are being doled out by the fistful..?
And in the UK, if anxious people can spin a convincing enough story, there aren't even any prescription charges..!
Good grief. No words.
That was exactly the sequence I experienced.
