Self medicating

Everyone self medicates in some way. We use something to lower our stress levels, relax, decompress, trying to rid ourselves of pain, discomfort an anxiety quickly and efficiently. We use exercise, food, drink, shopping, legal and illegal drugs, meditating, socializing with family and friends, and many others.

But what does it mean when an entire circle of friends uses SSRIs, and anti-anxiety drugs? Should I be concerned that I'm the only one who isn't? What does it mean? Am I attracted to people who are from the ding and dent department? Or is Everyone in LA this way, and I'm just not aware of it?
