In this short YouTube dialogue, Speaker A expresses disbelief that doctors prescribe antidepressants without first considering lifestyle changes, noting that many Swedes are on these drugs unnecessarily. Sol Brah responds by attributing the trend to financial incentives: doctors receive sponsorship and payments from pharmaceutical companies for prescribing medications, creating a profit motive. He further claims that medical mistakes are the third leading cause of death in the United States, suggesting the profession is corrupted and has strayed from the Hippocratic Oath’s principle of "do no harm." The conversation frames antidepressant overprescription as a systemic, profit‑driven problem rather than a clinical necessity.
