Science says yes:

Quote:

More than one in four American women took at least one drug for conditions like anxiety and depression last year, according to an analysis of prescription data.

The statistics were taken from Medco's database of prescriptions and is based on 2.5million patients with 24 months of continuous prescription drug insurance and eligibility.

The company said women are twice as likely as men to use anxiety treatments as 11per cent of women 45 to 65 are on an anxiety medication.

Women are also more likely than men to take antipsychotic drugs like Zyprexa, Risperdal, and Abilify, which treat disorders like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

The pills don't seem to reduce the craziness either.

I believe it, at least as far as American women go. The behavior patterns I'm seeing can only be explained by the presence of some sort of psychosis. I'm slowly being convinced that the majority of them have something wrong upstairs, including many milder anxieties/psychological/behavioral issues that don't always require a prescription.

In a word...YES. They're crazy. Some a little, some a lot, but they've all got a little bit of crazy in them. And for most, I don't think it's anything clinical. The mixture of self-centeredness/selfishness, insecurity and indecisiveness simply doesn't allow them to get out of their own way, causing them to basically spin their wheels mentally most of the time.

I agree women can be pretty off-balance due to their emotional nature, but drawing a conclusion from this statistic alone is a little unreasonable. Especially considering that most men would be far more hesitant to seek some kind of help if they were experiencing depression or anxiety - at least that's my guy feeling.

Point being that there could be more here at play than just women being crazier. All this statistic says is that more women get treated for these conditions.

[Nonpareil]

I can't even get verbose on this topic, so here's my short answer...Yes.

Seriously, how many girls do you guys know that are on antidepressants? I'd very conservatively say it's 1 in 3, but it's probably closer to 3 in 5. What exactly does the typical, average young North American girl have to get depressed about exactly? Is it the better rates of University graduation, or the better-than-equal protection under the law that gets to them?

[Sphere]

Yes. Yes, they are.

[Giovonny]

Use their craziness to your advantage. Don't allow them to drive you crazy. Beat them at their own crazy Game. Don't get logical with a crazy person. Game them hard.

Crazy women are good fucks.

Don't be just another beta holding his dick and complaining about them.

Like Jim Morrison said...

"women seem wicked when you're unwanted"

When women want you they seem a lot less crazy. (at least in the beginning)

Try to reverse 2000 years of male female relations in 50 years and you're going to wind up with a lot of crazy, confused, and ultimately lonely broads.

Ooops...I mean to say at least that's my "gut" feeling. lol
