Time to ban antidepressants?

Since 100% of multiple murderers in schools ALSO ingested the chemical dihydrogen monoxide - should we ban that as well?

no because it does not have studies showing a direct link with suicidal and homicidal ideations

When people are taking SSRI's or other antidepressants, perhaps we shouldn't let them drive since they might use their cars as deadly weapons?
many medications in fact warn of operating heavy equipment..but the real answer is to ban the use of these drugs in children and for treating mild to moderate depression as they are proven too be dangerous and ineffective

That *some* dangerous side effects exist is documented: but 'ineffective'???

I suspect the real problem is not so much 'side effects' as that such anti-depressants are being prescribed in cases where the situation is NOT 'depression'.

And before we go any further, 'clinical' depression (ie, when not associated with death, divorce, other major life trauma) is one of a very few 'mental illnesses' which have an underlying physiological basis.

And there is no reason to suppose that children never or only very rarely are afflicted with this scourge.
 
that statement could not be any further from the truth


The Manufacturer is required to report an ADE..

Reporting Adverse Drug Events

"Reporting to the FDA Via the Manufacturer: The majority of ADEs are reported to the drug manufacturer, whose contact information can be found at the relevant manufacturer Web sites. The manufacturer collects all pertinent information from the reporter and is required to send this information to the FDA. Serious and unexpected ADEs are expedited by the manufacturer to the FDA within 15 days of the manufacturer’s receipt of the ADE. All ADEs are also periodically reported by the manufacturer to regulatory agencies through periodic safety reports. These reports contain summaries of all ADE reports in a designated time period and include patient exposure (both postmarketing and clinical trial), presentation of case summaries, study findings, and overall safety evaluation."

lol...

See this is what happens when I attempt to treat a person like you in an intelligent and respectful manner. A total waste of time.

Regardless, "lol" carries the same weight as a person diagnosed with a mental or emotional illness who has not taken their medication....
 
So Medicine now...is worth s** ?

We are back to the 18th century then....

Fuckwards all

Nothing more to say to your thick mind...

Not wasting my time with you anymore.
 
Many have asked, what is a common factor in most incidents of school violence? Of course, the current PC crowd is holding a witch hunt against firearms, although school violence is certainly not limited to their use alone. It does seem that, regardless of the tool employed to commit murder, mayhem, and suicide, the one common element would appear that almost every single perpetrator was using, or had recently been using, antidepressant drugs of some sort.

I'm just wondering whether that small fact will show up in the Biden committee's findings?

You sound like a scientologist.

They don't trust psychiatrists.

even a broken clock can be right twice a day..your strawman does nothing to refute the facts
 
Having read a great many of GW's (the OP's) posts - he's no scientologist. I find him to be quite mellow and reasonable, and respect his opinions.

My understanding is that he had drawn no conclusion on this, but was simply raising a question about misdiagnosis/misprescription of anti-depressants.
 
Antidepressants can be life saving for many people. Are they over prescribed? Most likely. This does not mean everybody taking them will commit a violent act or become suicidal or homicidal. In fact, many times, it prevents these feeling in people suffering from mental illness. You should be under the supervision of a Psychiatrist and it works best with other therapy as well but these drugs are most definitely needed.

you think drug corporations dont simply create their own data and suppress reports when they have been caught doing so repeatedly..your response was basically the fox is guarding the hen house

no more effective than placebo..fact
 
Stop the mentally ill from owning weapons and killing children NOW.

Take a drug that has suicidal or homicidal thoughts as known, proven side effect?

NO GUNS FOR YOU.
