multiple antidepressants and ADHD medicines and so on, I'm always happier to start with changing behaviors, modifying behaviors, start with some counseling, start with some explanation, explaining to kids that it's natural and okay to feel anxious. Have you heard about the smoke detector principle? Of course.

Right, right. So anxiety sort of operates that way. We get anxious and there's just so many things out there now to get anxious over. We have to learn to deal with it rather than take a pill to try to eliminate it. So I think there's a lot of overuse. And of course, the SSRIs that are used so commonly don't, probably work as well as sustained exercise does over the long run.

And, you know, but it's a lot easier to take a pill, you know, and people often choose the easier way. And there's a lot of pressure, you know, from the television and other media telling you if Take this antidepressant and if that doesn't work, maybe another one will make you happier. So I think, yeah, I think it's overused.

And I think having an evolutionary perspective can, you know, which includes something like the smoke detector principle can help us to sort of pull back on some of those things. And of course, these old people we talked about who are unhappy because they aren't taking care of their grandkids and they're unhappy. their SSRIs, well, move closer to your grandkids. I think that'll work better.

Well, you would allow parents, mothers to be in contact with their babies more. And they're doing that to some extent. You would be, you know, you would be introducing breast milk as early as you can. You would be

I mean, I saw โ I don't know how common it is, but when I was a resident in the NICU, you know, I saw babies who were induced or made to come early who then had breathing difficulties and ended up in the ICU and on ECMO, of all things, because of, you know, kind of stupid errors like that. And so I think โ just trying to...

being less cavalier about in inductions and C-sections would, would help change the, uh, the complexion of, of NICUs, but just allowing more parental contact, you know, they, they, they have that. And, and there, and I think there's movement towards that.
