Everything existed 'back in the day' but just didn't have the names we give to them today and in some cases the gravity we now associate with such conditions, ADHD (naughty kids?), SAD (winter blues), PTSD (shell shock?), PPD (baby blues) to name just a few. Of course we also didn't have all the professions that make a good living out of diagnosing and treating them. I blame Maggie, with no coal to mine, we have to mine the mind.
