MODERATORS
This is obviously horrendous on the face of it, but in addition, he doesn't even consider people who take medication classed as antidepressants for other issues. I am on a tricyclic antidepressant that does help my depression, but I also take it because it significantly reduces migraine attacks and mitigates my IBS symptoms. So even if you do think that depression is 'all in your head' (ignoring all modern information and proof to the contrary), you still should be enraged by the mere suggestion of a policy like this.
