Wait, preschoolers being medicated for depression? Like what, when someone takes the cookie they wanted or won't share their dolly with them? ...I seriously hope you're making these statistics up.

quote: And three-(or four)-year-olds don't get freaking depressed.
Actually they do. I just turned in a report on depression. And 4 percent of preschoolers in America are depressed. They are the fastest growing market for antidepressants. Even infants can become depressed if they have a limited amount of human contact.
And I would never feel pain / and never be without pleasure, ever, again / and if the reign stops, and everything's dry, he would cry just so I could drink the tears from his eyes...

It's sad we would categorize preschoolers that way. Very ridiculous.

Minor hypochondria is more widespread... If one becomes depressed, one will inevitably take notice of it. And three-(or four)-year-olds don't get freaking depressed.
