Lots of people are depressed because their life objectively gives them no joy or true satisfaction, they dont understand how to process their emotions, and they hold on to this idea that they must participate in the rat race to buy things to make themselves happy instead of spending their time trying to understand themselves and their true desires and work on what's making them unhappy in the first place
I think SSRI's have their place in individuals who have their #### together and should be happy but are clinically depressed, but they're probably over prescribed for people who have congruent depression, I.e. theres an entirely logical reason they are depressed and they dont have the tools or knowledge on how to tackle it
