Is your sister bipolar? SSRI medicines can flip a biplar from depression into mania, and manics lose their sense of shame etc.
not a problem for ordinary folks.
Ah, no, I don't think I ever saw her manifest what might be called a break from reality that would involve restraint or constant oversight. But then considering the gap between our ages and the lack of our social overlap, our relationship was never intimate such that I knew much of how she dealt with life's stresses.
However, it did seem that if the drugs were meant to lift her spirits from incapacitating depression, it/they also erased some inhibitions that might have colored her values judgment.
Our Dad was a quite moral and ethical Protestant minister, and my mother also quite prim, and I more closely identified with their interpretation of what a godly life might be, than did my sister's sense of restraint as altered by medication. I cannot say more, and by all means my sister's bearing was not anti-social or lawless.
The issue we're talking about here is possible displacement of understanding what and who God is, and how that might affect one's behavior. I think one might say, that the Prozac might not have brought a large change on widening of boundaries, but it may have greatly diminished a sense of shame if those boundaries were overstepped.
That would mark a distinctive difference between the willingly pious lifestyle of one's parents, and a deportment which the drugs might allow giving oneself permission to behave in ways that are not unlawful, but depart from one's childhood training without suffering inner conflicts and guilt.
That is why I'd prefer to be depressed, and I have been, than take mind- and spirit-altering chemicals that might cause one to lose one's moral and ethical bearings rather than learn to conform to them through experiencing and developing aversion to unacceptable consequences. I want to become closer to the God of the Bile, rather than acclimate to declining social mores through chemically-induced blindness.
This explanation is rather lengthy, but am I making sense here? Does the word borderline come to mind? Does probing the outer reaches of God's mercy and graciousness arise from a blurring of His Biblical standards?
It was conviction of my guilt for ignoring or abandoning those standards that convinced me of sinfulness, of Christ's righteousness, and God's certain judgment that bought me to the Cross-experience and salvation. I have unallayed concerns for my sister, and pray that she may be prepared to join her kin in the heavenly congregation.
