I understand that, Spector, and acknowledged it. However, I feel that the majority of people who take anti-depressants aren't in that category. Same with ADHD.
What are you basing this off of, though? Personal experiences? It may just be that certain people you know flamboyantly display the fact that they are on antidepressants, and these stand out in your mind when making judgments like this. I think your best bet is to read some research journals on the topic and see what the medical community has to say about disparity between those who need the medication and those who take it haphazardly. It may not be as wide a rift as you believe.

I trust my personal experience more than the medical community. The people who make antidepressants, and make money for prescribing antidepressants, are part of the medical community.

It's the same as flu shots. The people who make them will most definately tell you that you should really really get one. They don't tell you that they're nearly ineffective at reducing flu-related illness and they've been possibly linked to the increase in autism in children.

Yes, I'm assuming. Most people I see who take anti-depressants are people who have shitty lives and can't cope with or fix their shitty lives, so they get a prescription to help.

I wish I had a prescription for ADD meds. How does an adult go about getting a prescription for that?

Say you can't concentrate at work, find your mind wandering and you can't do anything about it and it's affecting your ability to do your job.

Oddly, you just described my life, except it affects my ability to sleep as well.

This may not seem like much, but I just did a speech on how to sleep well. I found out that you don't sleep well unless you sleep when you're actually tired/sleepy. If you spend 5-10 minutes or more to get to sleep, you should get up and read a book, or do something to help you sleep and turn off your mind/wear it out. I also found out that you're supposed to have a regular sleep pattern. If you don't, it'll be just like antibiotics. You won't get you're full rest potential. I used to have sleep problems in high school. I would get home from a soccer game, be tired as shit, sleep 1130-4, then be re-energized and not know what to do. It helped me get papers done, but what else am I supposed to do? I still thought I was cheating myself of sleep, but maybe my body learned to live on 4-5 hours of sleep unless I was exhausted. And tonite I passed out around 2, and then woke up now about 430 and I feel sober as a bone, and I can't sleep. Weird. Oh well, as for my advice, take it or leave it. It was a pretty well informed speech.

I love that show, seen every episode. House is a jackass, and he's smart, so it's a good show. I have a friend who gets 40 mg adderall and 20 mg adderall, which seemed a bit odd, but oh well.

I have seasons 1 and 2 on my computer. I've seen a few episodes on TV, and watched the pilot for season 1 last night.

I've probably seen every episode except the last one about 3 times.
