Original Note:
Non-Hispanic whites make up ~58% of the US population so comparing gross numbers does not present an accurate picture. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_United_States#:~:text=As%20of%202020%2C%20White%20Americans,minority%2C%20making%20up%2012.1%25.) However, on a percentage basis both non-Hispanic whites and women ARE more likely to take antidepressants than other races and men, respectively.
