What has happened? Has some dreadful plague suddenly afflicted the nation? You’d be forgiven for thinking so when you hear that government figures show 48 per cent of the population are on prescribed medication.

It’s mind-boggling. Half of the entire population of this country take at least one tablet, while a quarter take three or more. We’re a nation of pill-poppers.

Buried in this data was one statistic that really stuck out for me. One in ten of us is on antidepressants. In fact, the greatest rise in the number of prescriptions was for antidepressants.
