In absolute terms, statistically SSRIs, anti-depressants and common OTC drugs like paracetamol and aspirin kill more people than all illegal drugs combined. This doesn't suddenly mean coke, h, meth are ice-cream and apple pie, obviously in relative terms far fewer people take powerful illegal drugs but it is still food for thought.Actually read the damn fine print on your prescription. Statistically speaking, if I picked a random person out of the population, he or she is more likely to die from a overdose of aspirin than cocaine.People who 'know-it-all', who are overly confident, or people who don't use google or wikipedia, these two groups represent 9/10 of people on the toxicology slab.
