It's a really important question. And the real answer is I'm kind of wildly guessing. But I'll at least share with you the basis for my wild guess. At best, it's maybe... 20% don't need them who 20% who do need them 80% who probably could get by if we as society take a different

The rates of ADHD have tripled since 2010, 14 years, triple the rates. The rates of autism spectrum disorder have quadrupled in 20 years. The rates of bipolar disorder in adults have doubled in 20 years. In children and adolescents, it's up exponentially because bipolar disorder largely wasn't recognized or diagnosed 30 years ago. So it's up like literally like thousands of percent.

It's crazy how much that's up. The rates of eating disorder, five-fold increased risk for eating disorders. In case people have been hiding under a rock, Opioid overdose deaths through the roof, five-fold increased risk in 25 years. Five-fold increase in opioid overdose deaths. We've long known how to recognize that kind of thing. There's this statistic.

So a lot of people are like, oh, this can't actually be true. We're just recognizing all these diagnoses. Well, we knew how to recognize eating disorders and people starving themselves to death 30 years ago. Yeah, we could see it. There was no problem diagnosing that. We knew how to recognize opioid overdose deaths 30 years ago. People were dying. They're dead on the street. the bloodstream.

It's not rocket science. It's not that we were stupid 30 years ago and didn't know how to recognize it or diagnose it. There's another statistic called deaths of despair, which include the opioid overdose deaths, but includes suicides and other causes of death, alcohol-related deaths. That is at an all-time high, at least since the Great Depression.
