I've been in my own boat sitting out in this water looking at this view. Awesome!-Sandee. This is a Tip of The Hat to Sandee, my Co-Author and blog wizard.

The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

International Day in Memory of SSRI Fatalities

Objective:
Raise Awareness about SSRIs violent behavior that has already killed many people and changed some people's lives that took these medicines.

SSRIs are being prescribed not only for those who are suffering Major Depression but also for people who are in distress because of life problems.
These antidepressants such as Prozac, Effexor, Paxil/Seroxat, Zoloft, Cymbalta and many others promote serious side effects, are very hard to withdraw and many people have already reported the hell they have to go through while tapering them.
One of the most terrible side effects, also a withdrawal symptom, is suicidal ideation that is not triggered by the disease that has led physicians to prescribe them but it's drug-induced.
Traci Johnson, a 19 years-old healthy volunteer hanged herself during Cymbalta clinical trials and was found dead in 7th February 2004
That is why this is the date for the International Day in Memory of SSRI Fatalities.
Violent behavior also leads people who are taking SSRIs, lost dosages or are withdrawing to harm other people as is demonstrated by reports of people who have killed induced by antidepressants.
Patients are not informed of these problems and many others like the teratogenic effects that has already been reported by some women who took SSRIs while pregnant.
Although there are many testimonies at the Web FDA, physicians and laboratories do not consider them as a source to Post Marketing Surveillance Trial which is the 4th phase of clinical trials.
They just claim that these testimonies are only anecdote evidence and not scientific data.
This are some of the aspects of this serious problem mental healthy and all the population of the world are facing: medicines that can make you kill yourself or others among other side effects.
It has already gone too far. People have the right to be informed about all of these harms and also that the theory that SSRI's antidepressants were done is an hypothesis that is questioned by serious psychiatrists.
I hope we can make people know what kind of problems they are facing when prescribed an SSRI antidepressant.

  1. Thank you Mike!
    When I saw the these antidepressants are tetarogenic I thought that it's the least we can do.
    SSRIs being prescribed to "treat" rapers since it makes people impossible to have a sexual life due to physical and mind altering?
    I guess I will publish the copy of the book where the psychiatrist claims this treatment is being done.
    I have already publish it once but blogs have leave many things out of sight.
    Thank you.

  2. Great post, Mike. There needs to be more awareness for these issues. Psychiatric medication is passed out like candy now and patients don't always receive all the information they should.

  3. Seems to me there's a rush to get some of these drugs to market so the pharmaceutical companies can start recovering R&D costs. I don't object to those companies making money...that's the point of being in business.

    But I don't understand why they can advertise to the general public. And it amazes me that they can advertise drugs with those long disclaimers about potential side effects. Whenever I hear those lists, I think the drug needs to cook a little more and be made safer.

    Travis,I do not know why the drug companies are allowed to advertise on Tv as well.they banned the tobacco companies from advertising their products.
