How exactly Anti-Depressants & Anti-Psychotics Work

[131flora]

there's no proof. some hypnotic music and a nice little receptor picture which is a complete concoction. if you trust people who make Paxil, etc, and cover up their own negative conclusions, then you're making a terrible mistake

Using no medical tests at all, I'm diagnosing you as 'crazy.' Here's a prescription for brain-disabling "abilify" a nueroleptic drug.

I did this without any lab test,brain scan or procedure known to medical science? that you in fact "have" the "illness" implied by the diagnostic labels.

You're now locked into a life-time diagnosis, needing life-time "treatment". Meanwhile, I'll get life-time payments, either from you or from your health insurance."

Thats psychiatry explianed.

The proof is: when I take Zoloft, I'm no longer depressed.

[cheeseylemon]

@Presto418 Yeah for me it doesn't matter if I have a chemical imbalance. If there's a pretty safe drug I can take that will make me more happy and ambitious in my life, sure I might as well give it a shot.

[Kennuckle1]

@Presto418 Same.

@Presto418 proof? I have the same experience when drinking redbull vodka............ hmmm.....

[Presto418]

@venushalley OK but you can't drink redbull vodka EVERYDAY with consequences.

[MeInTheCornfield]

My own research has led me to the conclusion that the only way to PROVE a "chemical imbalance" is through a biopsy of brain tissue: even spinal fluid (i.e. a spinal tap) does not yield the results described in this video. CONCLUSION: DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!! There is PLENTY of research out there indicating some real negative aspects of taking SSRIs & antipsychotics

@MeInTheCornfield buddy, i got this video from ZOLOFTS website.

[venushalley]

@TelosShasta From a Pharma company? And you take that for granted.

what an absolute croc....especially re transforming lives. not for the better believe me. worse...is the casual mention of side effect 'but they do go away'. that's a lie. these side effects become all consuming....sometimes lethal. remember these are treatments for non-fatal conditions. also, please note that it was cartoon drawings that were used to prove the hypothesis that chemical imbalance has any relationship to emotional distress.

[libraryservices]

@christinamc66 Interesting. I have been on 100mg of Zoloft for many months now and I have not experienced a single side effect. I feel great!

[MeInTheCornfield]

@libraryservices If you E V E R make the call to come off Zoloft, P L E A S E do so with e x t r e m e caution & O N L Y under a doc's care!!!!
