RFK's recent controversial statements about the link between antidepressants and violence have far more of a basis in the biomedical literature than the media lets on.
These are demon drugs. We have no way of even definitively measuring or quantifying "depression". And we have little understanding of how the brain works or the myriad interactions of its biochemistry, yet Big Pharma pick a single neurotransmitter and convince consumers this is the cure.
And it's not just SSRI's. So many other drugs cause equally severe consequences. A search of fluorinated antibiotics (the fluoroquinolones: ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, delafloxacin) reveal a list of horrifying side effects that include;
* blistering, peeling, or loosening of the skin, hives or welts
* bloody or cloudy urine, kidney damage
* jaundice, liver damage
* chest pain, irregular, pounding, or racing heart
* coughing or spitting up blood
* fever, severe headache
* hearing loss
* hypoglycemia in diabetics
* loss of muscle control or coordination
* tearing or severing of tendons
* seizures
* severe stomach pain, cramping, or burning
* nausea, vomiting
* shakiness in the legs, arms, hands, or feet
* nightmares
* confusion, hallucinations
* suicidal thoughts
And they're just antibiotics!
It is inconceivable (and criminal, I would add) that such drugs are even making it to market.
I would avoid ALL pharmaceuticals. And if that's not possible, we can no longer afford to outsource vigilance or due diligence, because it's become clear that Pharmaceutical companies and Regulatory Agencies aren't doing it.
The Standard American Diet and all the junk food eating has no nutrient value. Lack of nutrients for the body...also deprive the brain of the nutrients it needs to function. Years ago, i read Sugar Blues by William Duffy...It was how people who ingested too much sugar faced depression. There are a number of other books on this subject, but there is not enough money to be made by the psychiatric field, , if people were cured by eating foods that contained nutrients. The brain needs the entire B-Complex to function well. Dr Russell Blaylock mentioned years ago in his newsletter how important the entire B-Complex was. He recommended a well known supplement company and i have been using its high B-Complex for years. I also avoid eating grains, which are a cause of schizophrenia per Dangerous Grains by James Brlaly, M.D. & Ron Hoggan, MA. I also avoid processed food...and use other supplements to make sure that I am getting all the nutrients I need, which keep me stable and upbeat. I am doing very well mentally and physically at 91, because I am aware of all the pitfalls in the American diet.
I don't know anyone who admits to taking antidepressants who hasn't had a disturbing personality change. One I know killed herself and her small son. Another had wild affairs and sent the family dog to the pound (in addition to a long list of nutty, nasty stuff that ruined that branch of the family).
After what I've seen of the fraud and gaslighting over covid jabs, and vaccines in general, I seriously doubt that I'll ever believe anything a pharmacuetical co or a government health authority says about the safety and effectiveness of any drug.
And I resent paying taxes for federal, state, and county bureaucrats to get out there and virtue signal and yammer their lies. I refer to those of the previous administration, and those still hanging on. Much gratitude to RFK, I hope he can right this ship.
As a mental health counselor for children and youths, I’ve been speaking out against psychiatric drugs for children and youths for decades—Like Dr. Peter Breggin, I believe that stimulants, SSRIs, anti-psychotics, and others are chemical child abuse. We already know that SSRIs can lead to suicidal ideation and suicide in children and youths up to age 24. RFK, Jr. is brave enough to order the NIH to launch studies on the links between SSRIs and violence.
I recently ended a thirty-year "addiction" to fluoxetine. This decision was made following a surprise meningioma that was discovered growing in my brain. Did the fluoxetine cause the meningioma? Who really knows? But when something like that happens to you, it raises questions. The big one: what has it done to my brain?
Obviously, I was one of those people who blindly followed the advice and guidelines of traditional Western medicine, governmental medical offices, university medical schools... well that blind trust is gone.
Here's what I can tell: I've been off the fluoxetine for over a month now, and I feel like I have been reborn. There is a calmness, clarity, and contentment that I have never experienced in my 57 years. It's still early in my journey, and I am still processing my entire experience with antidepressants. But in this moment, I have a lot of questions. I appreciate this info!
I have a brilliant friend (do you know anyone who is "too smart for their own good"?) who still believes if she could just find the right combination, dosage, etc, she could/would be "better". She has a conviction set in stone that her brain is chemically imbalanced.
Used to be called manic/depressive, now referred to as bi-polar. I have known her for almost 40 years. She can come across as charming, pleasant, civil, even lovely. If you cross her, however, or do something she perceives as a slight, be prepared for the banshee effect.
The last time, probably the worst ever, there was an emotional explosion and the fallout revealed that she did not remember what happened. Since I have become a bit afraid of her over the years, for me this was the straw that broke my back, and I saw I could no longer trust her. I had to end the friendship, which is heartbreaking. She could not grasp this, and still called me a few times, leaving messages, as I did not take the calls. It seems the only way to protect myself from an energy field that is willing to consume me/others is to stay away. It is deeply saddening.
The WHOLE reason I worked for the RFK campaign is BECAUSE the man is scientifically literate.
Of course I have educated family members and former co-workers whom every one refuse to examine any body of evidence, much less the work of scientific critical thinking. Its a willful hubris type of mass-denial, completely uninhibited by actual reality & psychologically-sealed by taking experimental mRNA and other questionable-benefit compounds into their very own body. Obviously mass propaganda alligns with that, of course.
I am not a supporter of the gun lobby, I am British and glad they have been (virtually) banned here. But whilst it is the bullets from guns that do the killing, I have always asked what causes the trigger of the gun to be pulled? What causes the shooter to shoot? In Britain there is little gun violence, but plenty of knife violence. It's the knives that kill, but there is someone holding the knife who uses it. Perhaps, soon, the authorities will begin asking the right questions!
In the states gun control is the convenient cover story to mask the use of these SSRI’s. As soon as the events occur the lapdogs of the media ….feeding off the largesse of pharma advertising $$$&…..parrot the dogma. It’s very predictable and most unfortunate. Perhaps the veil can be lifted.
Yes indeed, if you turn it round it also makes nonsense. If someone has no gun he will not commit a violent act. Once he has bought a gun he might. Here in the UK I have lots of knives - I haven't stabbed anyone yet!
Although I can’t personally verify I believe the overwhelming majority of gun owners don’t committee violent acts. Of course the violent acts of American foreign policy (rules based order I’m sure) far exceed those committed by citizens.
I worked with Developmentally Disabled adults 13 yrs they were the living lab rats used as guinea pigs for all kinds of new pills. Try to question, they send someone else. Prayers!
While I think Mykyta's comment is absurd and derogatory beyond belief, I will also not be able to blame drugs on Columbine, with the research gone into it being a planned operation. Maybe in some cases SSRIs can be used by the perpetrating government agencies to assist the mindset of the shooter(s), but the evidence in the article is very compelling for a general indictment of the drugs. Heck, abolish psychiatry for that matter, not a science, just a psyop by Tavistock.
William Walsh has been talking about this and has had a proposal for years. Here is a research paper - A Proposal for the Prevention of School Shootings
SSRIs definitely play into the picture. As someone who took antidepressants at two periods in my life all I can tell you is that within a very short time, I felt suicidal and wanted to kill myself daily. Pharmaceuticals are poison. Period.
It is absolutely pathological level of narcissism to blame miracle psychiatric medications like SSRIs for violence which basically happens because people developed this conditions because of total neglect and abuse they have to deal in their life.
A careful reading of the article clearly states it is a SUBSET of the group taking the SSRI….NOT the entire group. The theory is that it may be due to genetic predisposition. Perhaps you can go for a walk and then reread the article.
I understand that for you spreading antiscientific disinformation is simply a way to earn some money without much effort, but have you considered it is going to kill people? Are you ready to take this responsibility on your shoulders?
I am not earning any money, just commenting on your narrow interpretation of the entire article. The usage of the terms "antiscientific" and "disinformation" against contrarian views are typically employed by true believers of cults. I will leave you and yours to the belief system that comforts you. With regard to considerations of killing people and the responsibility therein, you need look no farther than your own "health" service.
It is natural for the body and mind to respond to abuse and neglect with depression, anxiety, hypervigilance, or shutting down and blunting emotions. Pharmaceutical interventions interfere with the process of healing, and the quality of evidence that they help is very low. Dr. Peter Breggin explains this very well.
Telling that pharmaceutical intervention is very little helpful is absurd, you just want me to believe the most greedy american insurance companies would pay a cent for medications which do not work? Doctors give antidepressants even for cats and dog and I have witnessed on my own eyes they work.
If you against pharmacological interventions, please record me a video when you go to the dentist for something like wisdom teeth removal without pharmacological intervention, we will see how it is going to heal without antibiotics (which are extremely toxic btw). Breggin is simply earning money by spreading manipulative disinformation, there is no a single academic paper authored by him about antidepressants ineffectiveness.

I am so glad to hear of your achievement! What you have accomplished takes more conviction and strength than most folks possess.

"How do we reconcile the life-saving benefits antidepressants can have for many, with the life-ending risks they pose for a few?"
Do they really have "life-saving benefits"?
Good question. Yes, they do. Simply walk to the nearest hospital and witness it on your eyes.

Read William Cooper’s ‘Behold A Pale Horse’. There’s more to the story..

Then it is even more depressing since you put some efforts to increase peoples netto suffering without any benefit to yourself
