@Willis, Agree with you entirely. However, Joe has said a mouthful of ignorant shit about mental health. Ari Shaffir -- one of his best friends (if you know of Rogan in any capacity in sure you know Ari) who suffered from severe depression and thoughts of suicidal indication -- actually called Joe out for being so clueless about the debilitating effects of chronic mental health issues. If my memory serves me correct, Joe was laboring under the delusion that exercise was the ticket to "getting back on the horse." But in Joe's defense, he's become far more educated and sensible on the topic. Good for him! But this type of ignorance exacerbates self-, public-, provider- and institutional-stigma. Perhaps, Dr Kelly Brogan planted the idea that ALL MENTAL HEALTH MEDICATIONS ARE BAD in his head. At least Joe is an open-minded and with enough time he usually travels to the more logical side of an issue.

@Willis, Both of them are right on some level (Joe and Popa). The effects of excessive booze and cocaine autointoxication and akathesia infused impulsivity. Occasionally, depending on the amounts and time of use, these drugs can manifest into depression. There's tons of research that shows this to be a rather conclusive. It's not an automatic result, but the neurophysiological madness going on in the synaptic cleft often causes abnormal function of neurotransmitters and the reuptake process. Receptors are flooded w serotonin, acetylcholine, Gaba, dopamine, etc then when stopped abruptly, it woulx be odd to not experience some variation of depression, at least for some period before the body got back to baseline/homeostasis. That said, they're making wild assumptions. Fury very well could have become depressed, but though genetics or psychosocial factors, not necessarily partying.
