Why do so many people have therapists and take pills to change their behavior for the better?

Seems like I have heard girl at school vent about their awful anxiety and depression and they mention how bad they get in the day or two before seeing their therapist again. And over half of them I know take prescription pills like adderall and it also seems like literally nearly every person at school says they have ADHD, ADD, or their sibling has one of them. They say they get so incredibly bored all the time and seem addicted to their phones. I don’t get it

I also will see girls talking about their anxiety and depression and saw aww for each other as they try to act closed off when really it seems as if this is all they want to talk about.


So why is this such a problem? Why does it seem like every girl has depression and a therapist? Why do so many of them take medication?

I do not need medication because I have God but people who do not have God have problems

Because they are teenagers so with the change of hormones, especial women's hormones so tend to be dramatic and depressed fast... Not to mention relationships, parents' problems, always comparing themselves to models, pessimistic thoughts... Don't worry once they grow up, they won't be that depressed anymore
