Perhaps, but if it's having a mental effect of notable size it still causes me concern. If you're happy with your current behaviors I don't see why you'd want it. Wouldn't it be better for individuals to just opt to take it themselves, encourage usage of those already existing environmental sources, etc?
- lawless123 10y agoone of the signs of depression is poor self maintenance, people get into a rut where they stop showering, cleaning etc. They wont always seek help.
- ucaetano 10y agoMy close experience with depression (not myself) is that it can takes years for someone to accept the thought of being depressed, and even more time to seek help. Sadly, there's too much prejudice and taboo over mental health in our society. People treat it as a badge of shame, not a disease.

- ultramancool 10y agoIodised salt is easy to opt out of though, many salts come without it still. Your municipal tap water is much harder to opt out of. Which is why I'd suggest you simply allow people to add this themselves if they'd like.
