If Postpartum Depression is as ubiquitous as Clancy's supporters have implied that means the majority of people alive today has survived a great filter to be here. You were cute or clever enough as a baby to not be strangled by your mother. Congratulations and well done.

“SSRI stare” — “a world so awful people have to drug themselves to get through it.” Yet civilization is coextensive with alcohol, and even hunter-gatherers had their psychedelics. Not modernity, but life is such that people turn to drugs.
