Prozac: The Military's Secret Weapon

[cjclay2012]

Please go here: watch?=vkDYQWgjiDxQ&feature=re­ated. Maybe they worry about our Country and the people of USA?

[stevenchaisson]

The military has known since WW2 that meta amphetamines help soldiers in their ability to kill other human beings, the Japanese use it extensively on infantry and kamikaze pilots. 

[JesusDillinger]

Soldiers are being fed Prozac? Prozac is fluoride, so I am being dosed also.

[TheMarciaJones]

Good for the Big farma! a Huge market for them now. Now they are making Zombies and this soldiers are going to be drugged and controlled like pieces of meat. Lost of sleep is easy to resolve, get some natural medicines that really works and the person really sleeps well. This is not only to help them to sleep, this is the way to control them using drugs, to sell lots of this poisons for the government buy with our money and that will make soldiers forever addicted.

Horrible!

[imamymay]

"Marijuana makes you less aware of the area." lie

[MsAgnosticatheist]

Most people that claim the medication helped them are merely getting the placebo effect. You are better off taking fish oil which is safer, cheaper, and more effective.

[Mushellah]

So that's why they all commit suicide...

[GetTheHook]

I'm in the military and Zoloft has helped me out a lot so far. I haven't had any side effects yet but I would be miserable without it.

[MultiMK6]

@GetTheHook

A; there are no side effects , only UNWANTED EFFECTS (sounds more friendly but its the SAME DEAL like genetic modified = genetic ENGINEERD)

B; Military and Schoolkids/students are the easiest accessable testgroups for longterm fx....its cheaper that way.. (they are in BUSINESS not in Healthcare, remember?

C; highly probable that your medication was developed BEFORE the so-called dis-order was named.

THINK 4 YOURSELF...

[boxerpup7]

Again some people do great on these meds. I wish people the best that they work for, but for those people that they do not work for, i do not think big pharma should be able to make that decision and say one size or one drug fits all persons. That is my experience with alot of different medications I have been on. Again, some pple do great, if it works for them, no bad side effects, great, no two ppl R the same. just think wen is bad, should be noted and understood. Persons and genetics etc.

[boxerpup7]

as for prozac it was just a matter of having no feelings while on prozac, i like to feel and be myself. I am very comfortable with who i am, how much I love and care. I love love and caring. I hate the feeling of nothing at all. I dont think meds should be a constant altering state either, only when they are necessary unless you have a condition that is constant, then that is something else. for me is severe anxiety and pan related to MS, is chronic & constant, but, those things do not help me.

[boxerpup7]

I hope other people have better response on these meds then i did, all i can say for me is never ever again. i would rather be depressed then completely medically altered by some thing that makes you either completely insane, or depressed beyond imagination, or have to stay in total and constant contol of yourself every second of your awake time and your sleep time. is why i tied myself to a nightstand. was affraid to go to sleep, for fear wuld let my guard down in self monitoring whle on zoloft

[boxerpup7]

of the two, zoloft is extreme dangerous drug. totally have no idea of yourself and constant and total control and self monitoring is necessary. so yes, if comit suicide it is to get relief from feeling completely medically altered insane. anti depressants cause seizures in a person that does not otherwise have seizures either. fact. i was tested upon tested and upon double tested. anti depressants cause seizures. did in me anyway. I didnot have seizures off of them and did have seizures on them.

[boxerpup7]

and yes there is a post below, but the most suicidal one i believe is the zoloft, that will make a person completely insane. when I was on that one i tied myself to a nightstand at night to sleep. I felt like i had to stay in total and constant control of my thoughts and emotions and yes strong suicidal tendancy. It is not just teens or children, trust me. completely adult in my thrities and yes, severe reaction to zoloft. i cannot take that at all, would never go on that ever again either.

[boxerpup7]

durign the war, but you have to think about when the war is over and if they get to stay on it, what could possibly happen to them then. unbelievable. so many, and omg. are you kidding me? really. wow. you had get it ready before they get home with so many suppsedly coming home all at one time, and then you cant let them go then. or you are responsible for their actions too. make sure they have counceling available and debrief properly. i cannot believe this report. omg. really.

[boxerpup7]

There is no emotion for family ife or any emotion at all. you just exist. and do as you are told a little robot for everyone but yourself. that is not and will not ever be me. ever again. i could nto even feel anything on my skin. or as a woman or wife. nothing. not even a existance, i hate prozac with a passion and never again is all i can say. ever. anyone on it should evaluate their lives, who they are on it and off of it. i like to be me. not a altered state of nothingness.is good for them

[boxerpup7]

I know i would never go on prozac ever again, it ripped the life and soul out of me and made me completely dead inside. i was nothing at all. i watched the columbine shooting on television, i remember thinking i dont feel anything, normally that would upset me. it was a horrible experience to realize you dont feel anything. horrible. there are better medications to calm and support calming without completely killing you as a human being.

[boxerpup7]

Has that been thought of prior to putting them on that medication? they do need to be human beings at some point in time. will you ween them? will you keep them on it? will they have a family life when they return home? will you adjust them when they come home? so they can feel something? or do they just get to stay the military machine and never care again as long as they live? I dont thnk anyone thinks ahead wen they decide on medications.

[boxerpup7]

Will they have medications when they are veterans? will they be kept on them indefinately? will you realize the effects of what they suffered during the war situation and address that appropriately? these types of drugs are absolutely numbing, they take the soul right out of you. you are completely dead inside when on prozac. sure it is good durng war to be a zombie and do exactly what you are told. but what about when released and then they suffer all their emotions all at once upon going off?

[boxerpup7]

It is a very bad thing they have no feelings, they are zombies and numb inside. and if they ever go off of them they will then suffer the ramifications of what they experienced and likely wil go thru everything they experienced all at once. when you put them on this type of medication you cannot take them off of it or they will go into shock immediately after coming off of this medication. while they are on it they do not feel or think of their actions. what about when they come home?

[SuperDelta000]

The Soldiers committing suicide is because of the antidepressants given to them. A psychiatric military team of nutjobs are drugging American soldiers to make them into drones. The drugs then make them insane and they kill themselves or their families. This is the handywork of psychiatrists.

[ElectricSexPants]

In World War II, they took Methamphetamine. I'd say prozac was an improvement.

[NYWAORCANZ]

I am not saying prozac is good.

It is best to stay pure and clean of drugs in general

However, soldiers who have been at war need help turning off the killing mindset when they return home

[MsEarthsnake]

Bummer

[carterwatrous]

"the problem is we have a medicated army now"....even though the military is 10x more productive than it has ever been, this is a " PROBLEM!!!!!!"

stupid fucks

if it works. dont fix it.

if its helping the troops, don't fuck with it

stupid as shit......

[carterwatrous]

@polskie90

same here dude....i said i been off prozac for 3 months and the recruiter said

" WELL U HAVE TO BE OFF PILLS FOR ATLEAST 12 MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!"

[brennipop]

This guy looks like a white Barack Obama!

[Defendor1983]

i was on 80mg of Prozac and 1.5 risperdone i was so homocidial so suicidal that you could air drop me into Iraq by str8 free fall and go commando on the tali heads i felt like wolverine! Prozac and other anit depressants= much $ for investors

[ForDoverUSA]

we have a medicated world bro.

[IcyScythe]

weed > any antidepressant by a mile.

[randyds5]

Its funny how he keeps calling it a "theatre" of war, like its a show or game, well, I guess war is a game. THe government are the players, and the soliders are the pawns

[boatstaylor]

oh my gosh. 12 % of deployed military members take anti depress.. etc.. what an idiot!!! he doesn't even quote where he gets them stats! This is pure anti war bullshit..

[OfficialEvilDoctor]

@boatstaylor u are full of bullshit boatstaylor.. pure anti-war bullshit?! what in the hell do you mean... i guess Ghandi and Martin King were full of anti war bullshit too. Hey everybody lets pop pills and go to war accoring to Boatstaylor here...

[boatstaylor]

@OfficialEvilDoctor I think you mis understood me. I was very unpleased with this article too and it's unfortunate that they prostitute this kind of shit.

[Dracanon]

why is it that cannabis which a all natural pain relief and mental pain relief isn't beening used instead? I'll be completely honest, I started using cannabis while I was in the Marine Corps, for deep depression and anxiety, and it really , REALLY helped me. I eventually popped on a piss test, and was given a bad conduct discharge. To hear that we are feeding our troops with Pharms that have been proven to CAUSE suicide and crazy shit, it is insane. I was a good Marine too, now I am broken.

[OutsidrArtst]

SSRIs destroy people, period. I am not surprised that the military uses them. The USA is about war, profit and denial.

[TruthJust]

Now that's what I call a war on drugs! Whocka! Whocka! Whocka!

[lamiac2411]

Sjit is rough nowadays no wonder everyone is taking shit to calm them down or hype them up. Our foods are processed garbage with multiple poisins and depleted nutrients. Our bodies only get a fraction of what they r supposed to and in return we feel like shit all of the time. Run down, sick, depressed. Then they push happy pills on ya that make u feel all better while at the same time giving you an excellent mind fuck.

[Jai666666666]

My God, if you only knew..., I got the complete list of drugs and the costs of every drug used by the Canadian army, it's mind warping.

[dreamaz1]

this worlds crazy

[MrSuperJuden]

Soldiers are NOT warriors.

[mjrooney7]

Why is this such a surprise? This is such a non story. So people fighting in war get stressed and depressed and need help. So what?

[drum192192]

oh shut up.....i dont se that guy out there let them do there thing and let them do what they got to do....dont be retarded !!

[sabbatha1]

I had a close friend who was given Prozac when we were kids.She tried to stab her Mom,cussed her out all the time and then had the nerve to ask fo money and things.Her mom is an idiot too and gave her what she wanted, maybe out of fear. We are no longer friends but she is off of Prozac and still a wreck. I think that stuff made her worse.

[2242bzo]

Fuck the troops. Fuck killing innocent people in other lands for the corporations to profit., in our names, using our tax dollars. Mama please don't let your babies grow up to be soldiers.

[PMK1002]

@2242bzo troops KNOW what they are signing up for.....killing for some greedy fat cat. if they dont know...let them go to war! if you have a lust for killing but dont want to go to jail....uncle sam needs you!

[2242bzo]

@PMK1002 Most teenage American troops don't know ANYTHING. What are you, fucking stupid? Or, are you just a coward?  FUCK YOU

[PMK1002]

@2242bzo how the fk does coward come into it lol? i seem to have the same view on idiots signing up. adults are fkin idiots, TEENAGERS dont know any better! brainwashed children...yet coward is the word you choose for me you self righteous prick! and im apparently 'bragging' of prozac? you really are as stupid as you say teenage soldiers are! coward?? lmao ya daft arsed wanker!

[PMK1002]

@2242bzo im the coward, but your the BIG MAN when your behind your fukin screen. in the real world youd get taken to the fukin cleaners if you answered anyone like that! problem with youtube wanks like you is,your all mouth on here, much like ppl in cars full of rage, soon as you get out to them they shit their pants! fukin pussy!

[PMK1002]

@2242bzo and its not just your teenagers...remember the majority of your people who were not teenagers voted for Bush! 1st time round when he took the presidency by deceit...what did yous do? fukin nothin! AMERICA can suck my balls, and you can too. seems you got a nation of clueless cowards!

[2242bzo]

@PMK1002 You're right. I'm not arguing with you. You're right.

[bosshonu]

@2242bzo

I'm with you, thanks for having the balls to post such a true and yet unpopular statement.

[2242bzo]

@bosshonu RIght on

[AmMellow]

My only experience of prozac is my dad telling me when I was very young that before I was born my mum had it for a short time and he described it as "she could have killed me and then made a nice cup of tea" presumably referring to the apathy associated with it. I therefore assume it would be easier for a soldier or marine to kill on the battlefield. I thought I'd share that with you.

[BohleyK]

The Marines disqualified me to enlist because I used to use anti-depressants. Yet they hand it out like candy.

[CujoTheMadDawg310]

... why would you tell them you took it anyway ?? .. and our Soldier and Marines who get these meds have been threw verrry stressful situations that no person should go threw so theres a big difference between going in with a problem and having a problem once your in .... hooah

[PMK1002]

@BohleyK i agree it's insane, but at least you dont have to wait to be sent to do dirty work for greedy people. if our armies were for defense, ok, but all we do is a modern version of great britains rule the world in a different guise. now we create reasons to invade! if all countries were like japan and not allowed an army big enough to attack, the world would be much more sophisticated that it is now.

[starmanskye]

There's so much medication in the military and society because there's so much illness. There's so much illness because our society is so out-of-touch, hypocritical and jaded by the lies and manipulation of the authoritarian system that has coopted our Republic.

[impermanentoo]

Watch this video

"Wisdom of the Buddha"

If we can't sleep, depress, stress, tired, angry and so on... Just keep repeating this:

May I be well be happy

May all be well be happy

You'll fall asleep within 5 minutes. The longest it takes from my own experience when I help others with this method, takes 30 minutes. Try it

May I be well

[jerami101]

If they legalized marijuana antidepressants would fall off the map!

[LyNtRuTh]

It's only illegal if BIG PHARMA can't regulate it, they've already crammed it into a pill called marinol, also in machines...by prescription only!

They won't present the science of nature, however will confiscate & profit from it though...siCkOs! NATURE would SHUT THEM DOWN!

Wiki CANNIBIS...it's great for you in many ways, also, adds brain cells, absolute contrary to the info that doctors and the public has been conditioned with!!

[PMK1002]

@jerami101 i agree it should be legal. i've smoked weed for 20 years. been on prozac too. prozac might help get you out of a rutt, but i think it can be dangerous. i ended up charged with attempted murder whilst on them. charges were later dropped as i was the one who was attacked, but the inner demons took over. back to my point though, weed is good for some, bad for others. just like anything else out there. weed can cause psychosis, but if drink is legal its absurd that weed isnt!

[virus058910]

@jerami101 marijuana is a depressant

[Jornev]

@virus058910 No offence but you do know the diference between depressants and depression, yes?

[Dracanon]

@virus058910 are trying to suggest that Cannabis MAKES YOU DEPRESSED???? MUHAHAHHA........Ha cannabis in FACT makes me undepressed, in fact I have a medical cannabis card for Anxiety and Depression and back pain I have.

[virus058910]

@Dracanon I'm not saying it makes everyone depressed. i think it does have that effect on some however. some smoke it and relax, and some smoke it and don't necessarily enjoy it.

[BIGPIMPINUPDANYC]

@Dracanon

Of all the times ive ever smoked weed it's only ever made me feel good about 3 times.

Most of the times it just made me feel down.

It has that affect on some people.

[brennipop]

@jerami101 Not against marijuana. It's an equal game, medical marijuana's legal, so is medical anti-depressants.... Not off the map so many people are against marijuana

[HTFDUDEHTF]

@jerami101

Marijuana makes you less aware of the area.

[kptzx]

antidepressants do NOT help you sleep!!!!!!!

[daDfarSpanTaistheKin]

@kptzx who said that to yu ???

have u heardof imipramin,prothiaden,and tricyclics, tetracyclics... they are pretty much sedatives as well..

[bluenail90]

@kptzx they can indirectly, cos bad depression can stop you sleeping. Get rid of the depression and then your'e able to sleep. (sometimes)

[vtruescot]

prozac , relieves anxiety , so helps to bring on rem sleep

[ElectricSexPants]

@kptzx - Many do actually - Remeron, Tramadol etc... But Prozac is less effective for sleep.

[MrTreantHugger]

@kptzx Trazadone definitely does.

[JazzSheep]

For 6 months I took prozac. I have no clear memory of those 6 months.

[PMK1002]

@JazzSheep same here apart from being in jail for attempted murder! luckily the charges were dropped. oh i ran up stupid debt too bouncing cheques like there was no tomorrow! no care in the world!

[MopDMTBARTL]

anti-depressants don't do SHIT but make you more sick. Video Google "The Drugging of our Children". It doesn't help nobody, stop lying!

Big Pharma = Illuminati = Depopulation Agenda = Georgia Guidestones

TruthKnowledge com

[retgdde]

I was on prozac for 12 yrs..It took 10 yrs to see what i had become...A VERY aggressive. Everyone was afraid of me. I am lucky to still have my job.I have been off prozac for 2yrs. now. Now iam calm and relaxed.

[amfrepalex]

haha. same here. been of it for about 6 months.. indeed, calm and serenity are once more traits of mine. ban the drug.

peace go with you..

[togussa]

That should be a given.

[NatureLegalized]

wake up sheeple

they invented doping &

how to get the results they want

[GaGirlie777]

They sure did. To be healthy...take absolutely nothing. Then detox to get the years of crap out of your body (fasting helps you to detox).

[NatureLegalized]

Anything to interfere with the ability to perceive the web they weave...

[GaGirlie777]

You got it!

[elilichtenberg]

this perhaps is why the soldiers have such a high rate of suicide when they come back.

[slimddozen]

I was on anti-depressants. They made me want to kill myself. There no joke. Not sure if they cause aggresiveness.

[osearth]

Everyone knows they take Ambien as a bedtime snack.

[tsenzei]

I'd say the bigger problem is what's mentioned at 2:50 (and not just for the military).

[tsenzei]

I read an article on that as well.  According to the military though, the rate of suicide (normalized for age/gender) is actually lower in the Army than in the Civilian population. How accurate those numbers may be could be questioned, but I doubt they aren't accurate. I did not see any reports however about the number of attempted suicides.

Further more, the suicides seemed to be accorded to non-military-specific reasons. Again, hard to say how accurate that is though.

[Boobalopbop]

No one is "forced" to serve.. and that bill was NOT blocked... It went through, with enough votes that Bush can't veto.

[Boobalopbop]

You're preaching to the choir... They shouldn't be put through this in the first place. Being at war is an EXTREMELY stressful thing, more than any of us can imagine, and they should only be at war if it can't be avoided. But since they are there... I'd hate to think they are treating people that need medication to cope. And if these medications cause suicide.. Well they shouldn't be approved as medication. In short.. Its all a mess.

Army Deploys Prevention Programs to Combat Soldier Suicides By Gerry J. Gilmore

WASHINGTON, May 29, 2008 -- The Army is deploying a multitude of prevention programs as part of efforts to stop soldiers from taking their own live...The 144-page Army Suicide Event Report released today said 115 soldiers took their lives in calendar year 2007, the highest number of suicides since record-keeping began in 1980, according to officials.

Five of the deceased were female soldiers. (cont)

[ikekll]

Ninety-three of the departed soldiers were active-duty troops, and 22 were either in the National Guard or Army Reserve.

Army records show 102 soldiers died by their own hands in 2006, of which 11 were women. Most soldiers that killed themselves were young and male, according to the report, with failed personal relationships cited as the number one cause.

Most soldiers that committed suicide did so at their home stations and not overseas...

[ikekll]

In fact, of the 115 soldiers who killed themselves last year, 32 died in Iraq, while 4 died in Afghanistan. Drug or alcohol use was cited in 30 percent of the suicide cases.

...The current active-duty Army suicide rate is 18.8 per 100,000 soldiers...The Army suicide rate goes down to 16.8 per 100,000 soldiers when the reserve components are added. The adjusted U.S. population suicide rate is 19.5 per 100,000 people.There've been 38 confirmed soldier suicides so far this year...

[Boobalopbop]

12%-17% of soldiers taking anti-depressants doesn't sound like a massive problem to me. It'd be more tragic if they were being denied meds they need. I don't believe in medicating everyone as a knee-jerk reaction, but this doesn't seem to be the case when its less than 20% of them.
