At one time or another, almost every teen may appear to be depressed. Usually, the depression is slight and goes away with time. But some kinds of depression need medical intervention. With such an intervention, writing a prescription for Prozac or some other antidepressant drug (Figure 1.1) has become the first order of business. Yet, less than twenty years ago, adolescents were rarely diagnosed as depressed, much less given antidepressants. Today, however, teenagers are now receiving medications almost routinely for symptoms that can hardly be termed “depressive” attention deficit disorder, social anxiety, or drug addiction, for example. Thanks to the “Prozac revolution” of the 1980s and 1990s, a majority of people in America know someone who has used antidepressants.

In other words, one American in ten has used Antidepressants.
