(Before It's News)

If you look at the sales for drugs like Zoloft, Lexapro, and Prozac, you start to see a significant rise in the number of people using antidepressant drugs over the years.

A new study shows that about 69% of people who use antidepressants don’t meet the criteria for clinical depression, but are likely simply experiencing sadness from various hardships.

Additionally, about 38% of people using antidepressant or antipsychotic drugs didn’t meet the criteria for any psychiatric disorders, including panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, social phobia, anxiety, and other disorders.
