Writer

With our national

love of drugs, sex, celebrities and

violence you'd think SSRIstories.com would be more popular.

The 12-year-old web

site lists 3,500 crime related news

reports linked to the use of SSRI antidepressants with celebrities like

Wynona

Ryder, Heath

Ledger,

Brittany , , Locklear, Glen ,

Fisher, Sharon Osbourne, Phil Hartman, Princess Di's driver,

Swayze's

Sister, O.J. Simpson and the Crown Prince of Nepal generously sprinkled

in.

You can search and

sort stories by drug--Lexapro, Celexa,

Luvox, Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil and the related Effexor and

Cymbalta--date,

location, type of violence and the articles about school shootings,

famous

cases and legal cases won on SSRI defenses are color coded.

You don't even have

to read the whole article.

SSRIstories founder

and manager Betty pulls out

and boldfaces the story's

drug-related

citation like Lynyrd Skynyrd harmonicist Mike Caruso's remark that,

"the

doctor put me on Cymbalta. That turned me manic," and Oklahoma murder

suspect Ronson Bush's remark, "I killed my friend when I took these.

I'm

not going to take them," when offered SSRIs at the Grady County Jail.

The site even has

medical journal credibility, cited in an

article in the spring 2009 Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons

in which

author M. Kauffman, Ph.D wrote, "Since no clinical trial involving

multiple homicides is ever likely to be run, no firmer evidence [of

SSRI

dangers than SSRIstories] is likely to be found."

Pharma and the FDA

may still be agnostic about SSRIs causing

violence but 700 murders, 200 murder-suicides and 47 postpartum

depression

cases, including the 2006 case of Yates who drowned her five

children on

Effexor, don't lie.

Nor do 51 school

shootings incidents including Columbine,

where shooter was on Zoloft and Luvox, Red Lake where

shooter

Weise was on Prozac, and Virginia Tech and Northern Illinois

University

where the shooters were reportedly affected by antidepressants. Nor do

hundreds

of suicides--including children--lie and veteran-related violence like

the May

11 death of five at a combat stress center near Baghdad allegedly

committed by

Army Sgt. who was on antidepressants-- eerily presaging

the

shootings at Fort Hood's Soldier Readiness Center.

Of course, there

have always been murders, suicides,

postpartum depression and veteran despondency. But parents killing

children,

children killing children, children killing parents and people killing their

whole

families wasn't news-as-usual

before

SSRIs appeared in 1988 say anti-SSRI advocates.

"There are two cases

of women who stabbed a man close

to 200 times and a case of a man who stabbed his wife over 100 times

and then

went next door to the neighbor's house and stabbed the neighbor's

furniture

about 500 times," says , a retired teacher who lives in Texas.

"There is also a case of a woman close to 80-years-old who stabbed her

husband 56 times and then stabbed herself to death. This kind of

energy, rage

and insanity was not seen before SSRIs."

Just as startling as

the ferocity of the SSRI-related

violence is its bizarre, often unprovoked nature: A Midwest City, OK

woman who

accepted a cup of tea from an elderly nurse she had just met--and then

strangled her. A 12-year-old boy left in his cousin's car while she

shopped at

Target--who killed her 5-week-old daughter for no earthly reason.

SSRIs also produce

kleptomania as seen with the Ryder/Zoloft

case observes , pyromania as seen in an English

millionaire who burned down his own house and immolation

suicides and a "strange kind" of nymphomania. "SSRIstories has

10 cases of women school teachers who molested their minor male

students. The

O'Reilly Factor has said it's receiving one case a week of this same

kind of

new crime."

Just as dangerous as

SSRIs themselves, is withdrawing

from them says the site in a prominent warning.

"It is important to withdraw extremely slowly from these drugs, usually

over a period of a year or more, under the supervision of a qualified

specialist."

began

SSRIstories as a message board in 1997 after

experiencing side effects to Prozac, prescribed to her to quit smoking,

that

were so severe she was hospitalized. Soon she was joined by two other

anti-SSRI activists, one whose daughter

had killed herself on the antidepressants, and they began posting SSRI

stories

from news sources. has spoken on the radio and at FDA

hearings and

the site has been cited by the New York Times, Chicago Tribune and Los

Angeles

Times.

But it plays

to the "Goliath" of pharma

funded sites like WebMD, emedicine, Medicinet, Righthealth and

Everydayhealth

with their ubiquitous "Are You Depressed?" ads. In fact Eli Lilly was

a founding partner of WebMD according to the Washington Post.

No, SSRIstories just

archives 22 years of important drug

related stories that the 72-year-old researches and verifies

as a

public service.

More of a public

service than the FDA which has yet to withdraw the drugs named in the

3,500 stories--or even call them dangerous.
