Dude on the second link, look at alllll the people who have some type of depression, like either clinical or watver but still.
Drew berrymore, Drew carey and jim carey, have depression and thier in a business that constantly kinda puts them out there dude!
Could there b a correlation also to ppl constantly being exposed to cameras and being put in the limelite and stuff to depression?

idk its weird how depression is more common than anything else

i did sum research and it looks like its even more common than bullemia/annorexia nervosa.

werid stuff dude
