depression is certainly a side effect of capitalism. obviously there are other things that can cause it but more people are depressed than ever before (more or less) and i think the social isolation encouraged by current-stage capitalism is a factor. a lot of people choose to self-medicate. there have been times in my life i would get really down every month or so and decide to get really fucked up about it. usually it made me feel a bit better.
