REPETITIVE BRAIN INJURY

There was an article in a recent Newsweek about male depression. According to the writer, traditional schools of thought maintained anxiety and depression were the result of the brain under-producing certain chemicals. Now it's evidently the result of the brain OVER-PRODUCING certain chemicals, the result of constantly being in the on-mode, for example the consequences of physical or emotional trauma.

The author says months or years of constantly being in high gear can cause you to fry your brain irreparably. Hmmm, six years of talking to retarded hicks, being yelled at by assholes, more than three years of smelling and listening to Shamu...
