My black and hispanic friends have told me that most white people are on prozac type drugs?

Question

and have the most mental problems. Do you find this to be true?

Answer 1

Not true. That's like saying most blacks or Hispanic are on drugs and beat their wives. Just not true.

Answer 2

I know that alot of white people especially have the philosophy that if it comes from a prescription bottle and the local drug store that it is safe. Take for example Rush Limbaugh. He was and prob still is addicted to prescription medication. Somehow if its legal and you give it a title then its justifiable. For other ethnicities it doesn't matter what you call it its still drugs either good or bad for you.

Culturally I know for a fact that marijuana is not considered a bad plant in other countries. They consider it the same as tobacco and or alcohol. In Mexico it is sometimes practiced to have like a cookie jar full of marijuana for incase of an injury they put it on the wound. Yep, kinda strange huh? Anyway, I think your friends have a point however when they say MOST WHITE PEOPLE I think that that is a little excessive. Perhaps what they mean is that in the scheme of white people in general their highest drug addiction is considered to pharmasudical drugs rather than to illegal ones.

Answer 3

In my town the majority of people are white, and a lot of times, I find that the white women are on Prozac from their daughters. I don't know why this is, but it is pretty prevalent in my town. But I wouldn't say that most are on it. The white women that are on it are definitely the minority.

Answer 4

No.

You don't have to be white to make stupid stereotypes.

What a black person can objectively say about a white is that whites burn easier in the sun.

Hispanics? Sometimes they are whites. I mean dependin€g right? Sometimes mixed with natives of latin america. Rarely pure. (Sadly in a way, that many of those peoples are gone) If they have these white genes too in many cases, how would they escape our insanity?

Answer 5

Thats a very sweeping statement that really isn't true. It would be like saying all black & hispanic people are criminals when they are not. Ignore what they've said, its a very silly thing to say.

Answer 6

Here's a tip for you: Whenever you see or hear the words, "all, most, and everybody" a generalization is being made.
I'm black and I think you just wanna be starting something. Shame on you!

Answer 7

You look white. Why don't you tell me?

Come on now... are you REALLY so foolish as to believe a ridiculous thing like that? You're either incredibly young, or just immature.

Answer 8

Well i work in the er and i do find that the majority of people who come in the er for drug overdose and drug use are white people.

Answer 9

I wouldn`t go as far as to say they have mental problems. They tend not to be as laid back or spontaneous as blacks or Hispanics . Anxiety can come from repressed feelings.

Answer 10

Yes, our medicine can be gotten at the Doctors office, their medicine can be gotten on the street corner.

EVERYBODY IS MEDICATING!! We live in an addictive society. Which is a very confusing message to tell children, "Don't do drugs, they are BAD, now, here, take this medicine for your ADD"

Peace.
