 Having suffered from depression for a long time and taking meds for it for over 15 years......what with our suckass economy and more people than ever suffering from depression, I'm envisioning street pushers peddling antidepressants along with the usual crack, heroin, weed, ect.

Addicts grinding up Prozac and smoking it......

Okay, just kidding.

I get these strange ideas all the time. It's the comic in me. Can't heppit.

 The medicine I take for some of the symptoms you just described... and more... is the #2 street drug stolen and black marketed by teens - 2nd only to Ritalin. See,  you're not so off the mark. If times get worse we might be millionaires!

 People will pay $5 a pill on the street for stuff you can get for $3 for a whole bottle with insurance and a script!!

 I thought my brain was the only one to think up those kind of scenarios. I feel like I found a long lost sister.

 My step son tells me that one of the types of drugs kids are into around here (and elsewhere I am sure) are pills. They grind them up into powder and snort them. I don't know exactly what they are grinding. Sadly they probably don't either.

 As for depression, lack of money certainly makes things worse doesn't it? People say money isn't everything but when someone's bills are piling up, mortgage not paid, no food etc., the lack of money becomes all encompassing.

 Ok, I am all over the place on this post. Gotta go drink some coffee.

 Around here it's hydros or percs. (Hydrocodone, percocet) Then there's E. (extacy) Kids will defiantly snort that stuff, guess it hits you faster that way. I couldn't imagine sniffing something up my nose! Sounds like it would hurt!!

[scrapNslack]

 I once accidently sniffed up some of my powder makeup ...... OUCH! I couldn't imagine doing it willingly.

[Sheri_05]

 Jenn...I've done that too....got a little bit of a buzz!!!!

 *****hehee**** accidentally snorting your makeup.... hehehee.
I see alot of depression medication being prescriped and stolen in our economic future.

Oh, now that is truly a shame, isn't it? The thought of these poor, POOR people not being able to afford Botox just breaks my hard heart.

I think I saw something like this on a Doctor Who episode....

 as the economy gets worse, everyone will get desperate.  did you hear about Oprah's mom and her credit card bill, or was that all a big joke on one of the late night shows?  I was half asleep, and heard it, but don't fully remember, just that she (mom) claims she should not have to pay it because the store should not have given her like$125,000 credit limit, she cannot afford to pay that.  HELLO????  If you knew you couldn't afford it, why'd you buy it in the first place?
