It’s ergonomic if you set it up right. I have a stand that I attach my IPAD to and pull out my mini mouse and keyboard and don’t have neck pains. With a laptop, you have to crane your neck down to look at it. I see it as like a laptop with a detachable screen.

It’s also less invasive that way, you can get a laptop stand but it looks ridiculous in coffee shops.

I wish this article referenced the data used in the sentence where it claims certain facts.

Such as the first sentence: “Close to 100% of people who take antidepressants experience some form of sexual side effects.”

Says who?

There are certain studies referenced but when other claims like the first sentence are made, I’d like to see where they got that conclusion.

Just 200 years ago, that 35 year old man would probably be dead already. Medicine has given us a longer life span and evolution hasn’t caught up.

You have to take pills more often (3x a day vs 1 a day) and only one potential benefit over SSRI which is less likelihood of sexual dysfunction.

SSRI withdrawals/side effects are the least worst out of medications like Xanax, beta blockers and other anxiety medicine. So… there are drugs with more devastating effects.

This problem isn’t just related to mental disorders. I think you are also undermining how difficult changing human behavior is, especially in relation to mental disorders and addictions. Ideally, SSRI’s are used to make behavioral changes easier.
