Contrary to popular belief, it was not common for depressed people to commit suicide until the advent of antidepressant drugs.
Since the pushing of mind-altering pills, people who had previously shown no signs of killing themselves or others have done so, even after short-term use.
More often than not, people who commit mass violence and school shootings are taking antidepressant drugs.
One side effect of antidepressants involves going into a dreamlike state, where "nothing seems real."
Many of those committing violent acts while taking antidepressants describe being in such a state at the time.
Frequently those who become violent while taking antidepressants have undergone a recent change in dose, such as Cho from Virginia Tech and Andrea Yates who drowned her 5 children in Texas.
It has been proven that antidepressants at least DOUBLE the risk of suicide in children in short-term clinical trials.
Those who do kill themselves do it in horrific, violent ways and feel desperate to end their lives.
A key ingredient in antidepressants (and many other psych drugs) which causes a dumbing down of the patient is fluoride, which suppresses thyroid function and causes nerve damage. (This is the same fluoride added to tap water and toothpaste.)
As of 1991, the FDA had recorded 17,605 adverse reactions to Prozac alone.
One possible side effect of antidepressant drugs is PERMANENT sexual dysfunction, yet an alarming number of children are taking these drugs, as drug companies continue to market them like candy, or a miracle cure.
Most people start taking antidepressants because their doctor has ordered it, 50% stop within a short time due to side effects, and it's debatable whether the other half is even being helped with their depression.
Once on antidepressants, it's very dangerous and difficult to stop due to possible severe reactions, and many people are told they will need to continue for the rest of their lives.
It's time for us to stop thinking of prescription drugs as being different from illegal drugs simply because they're prescribed.
Most doctors are unaware of these facts. As a nurse, I only became aware through independent research, and in psychology and even pharmacology we were NOT taught to look for warning signs in our patients.
This footage is from the FDA's Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Committee Hearing on Sept. 20, 1991.
This clip reveals corruption by showing ties between consultants to the FDA Advisory Committee and drug companies.
OVER 90% OF FDA SCIENTISTS LEAVE THE FDA FOR TOP PAYING POSITIONS WITH THE VERY DRUG MAKER THEY APPROVED DRUGS FOR.

Try 5htp Instead Better yet get a nurotransmitter test GOOGLE It im not promoting this theres many sites that do tests. It is costly But well worth it.
Actually justbecause, the problem really IS the medication, coupled with the fact that the drug companies weren't releasing the results of studies that shown an increased risk of suicide in patients taking the drug. Doctors were unaware of this when prescribing these drugs that had such harmful effects. So for the comment 'all side effects were made known', this was not until 2004. For more information, or those that wish to flame me saying I'm wrong, read the book 'Side Effects' by Alison Bass.
The problem isn't the medication itself, it's that doctors will rather medicate their patients than actually getting to the bottom of the problem. Prozac helps stabilising the level of serotonine in the brain and should only be used for this purpose. A person who has suffered from a traumatic event and becomes depressed by this needs therapy, not pills. With that being said, Prozac is the best thing that has happened to me. It saved my life.
Usual American refusal to look at easy access to guns for idiots and the mentally ill. Funny how other western nations also have antidepressants but do not endure problems at this level. But, of course Americans must have their sanctimonious right to bear arms. Here's one price. Another is the all American workplace and school shootings endured month in month out. Will they ever learn? Actually no, only more guns will (and actually are) being bought.
Hm I am taking Prozac cause of IBS and I feel normal. Who knows maybe I will go buy a gun and shoot myself. I have been taking it for about 3 weeks now and I feel pretty much the same. The only thing I have noticed is i get dizzy from it.
try some Sangre De Drago drops in a glass of water, I have heard great things about it helping the intestines and IBS. I know a good place to get it too.
no they are not neither is the severity of their side effects and truth be told the majority of ppl don't need those medications, only the most severe cases should be considered for medication
Yes, there should have been black box warnings on these medications. But you are condemning ALL of them. There are many people who have been helped by Prozac. Here is my question to the alleged victims, who blame Prozac for the suicidal ideation. Why were they given Prozac in the first place?
