Did some more research. According to the EU [1] 27.4% of the population suffered from a mental disorder in the past year. It would not surprise me to hear that two-thirds or so of those were medicated, though I haven't actually found

This article seems to me to be a sales pitch, which makes me think that Dr. Rowbotham wrote the historical context for the article and Dr. Clayton built up the scientific portion. I'd call shenanigans, except the article was originall

I don't think the title is fair to what's going on here. To be sure, there has been a reconsideration of Lee, but it's not as negative as one might think. Often the counterfactuals presented here and in other articles forget

Haha, I see what you did there. ;-) I had to withdraw from my program at the (almost literal) last minute due to family issues, so I've been reworking my thesis into a few articles. I'll try to send one of those on in a few days
