Guest guest Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Thanks for writing such an honest article about a subject that seems to be " taboo " -- that is, the fact that these SSRI drugs are not safe. The saddest thing about it is, that the spectacular effects, like suicide, murder, and carnage on the roads, are only the tip of the iceberg. You allude to the fact that in " rare cases " they cause these spectacular events of suicide and murder to take place. Well, how rare is rare? Two percent of 5 million is 100,000 acts of violence. But the minor horrors of a population doped up on SSRIs are legion. These drugs do not cure nor even ameliorate any known disease. They destroy lives, relationships, and bodies -- brain damage, liver damage, heart damage, and they are very difficult to withdraw from despite the fact that drug companies can hide behind the statement that they are not addictive, not according to the technical definition of addiction. Worse than what they do to the body, they destroy character -- people on them lose a sense of right and wrong, become insensitive to others, lose the ability to feel normal emotions, lack empathy for others, become sexually and mentally inert, become poster children for the " I don't give a damn " motto, and to top it all off, they become, on these damned SSRI drugs , unable to have insight into what is happening to them. Rather than learning how to overcome their problems, and grow stronger mentally, emotionally, and spiritually from the experience, they are arrested in their development, permanently in many cases, as they are often put on them for life. Great for profits. They lose their inhibitions against doing routinely stupid and destructive things, which leads SSRIs to be known as the divorce drugs, and people under their influence become horribly dangerous drivers, with the impaired judgement and other brain deficits. The FAA will not let a pilot with SSRIs in their system fly a plane, and that goes for the six months following withdrawal, although withdrawal effects can go on far longer than that, and even first show up months after the attempt to discontinue use. These drugs have been a pot of gold for the psychiatric industry, and a curse upon the world. It is heartening to see someone in the mainstream media willing to write and publish any truth at all concerning them, and I thank you for your efforts.
