There is your solution right there!

Put everyone who has been bullied on psychotropic drugs.

Turn your eyes and hearts towards Science because you just don't have it in you to deal with your own problems.

This is an ad for the pharmaceutical industry and look at the workload it will create for shrinks!!.
