Chalet Reports finds that indiscriminate rampage killings in the United States increased by nearly five times (500 percent) within the first decade after the introduction of serotonin-related antidepressants in the 1960s, and has essentially doubled since then, to nearly 10 times the highest rate of rampage killings in earlier decades, after Eli Lilly first began admitted testing on humans of fluoxetine (known mostly by its brand name Prozac).
The bar chart below shows the number of such rampage killing incidents (not number of victims) by decade, beginning in 1900, through August 2018. A proportional line graph of the growth of the US population during the same time period is superimposed over the bar chart of rampage killing incidents, demonstrating conclusively that the rate of increase of rampage killings grows significantly faster than the population.

... Chalet Reports research also indicates that at all relevant times, Eli Lilly was a major contractor for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). As Congressional hearings and other investigative efforts have affirmed beyond any doubt, the CIA at relevant times was actively engaged in developing and testing drugs, hypnosis, and other techniques attempting mind control under the banner of a program named MK-Ultra and its offshoots.
In fact, as H. P. Albarelli, Jr., has documented from CIA records, in his book A Terrible Mistake, Eli Lilly was the exclusive, and illegal, supplier in the early 1950s of LSD to the CIAs Technical Services Staff (TSS) for its experiments, often conducted on unwitting Americans, including mental patients, prisoners, and service men. One such document, a memorandum for the record by CIA official Robert Lashbrook, details this arrangement with Lilly, at a time when the CIA was calling its mind control program ARTICHOKE ...

It didn’t take long for big pharma’s paid shills to show up.
For crying out loud people! Look around that website! It is Scientology! Anti-depressants don’t kill people. Evil people do.
Can’t wait for the “yep, it’s SSRI’s” blame game from our side after the next mass shooting.
Prevalence and clinical presentation
Observations strongly suggest a relationship between the intake of amphetamines and the development of acute psychosis. First, early studies demonstrated that amphetamines could trigger acute psychosis in healthy subjects. In these studies, amphetamine was given in consecutively higher doses until psychosis was precipitated, often after 100300 mg of amphetamine [20-23]. The symptoms subsided within 6 days. The effect was blocked by the use of anti-psychotics [24]. Not all the subjects in these studies became psychotic, as some had to be removed from the experiment because of health risks caused by elevation of heart rate, blood pressure or body temperature. Secondly, psychosis has been viewed as an adverse event, although rare, in children with ADHD who have been treated with amphetamine [25-30]. Thirdly, drug-induced psychosis has been reported in 846% of regular users of amphetamines [31-37]. The wide variation is probably due to different populations being studied, gender [38] and the method and duration of amphetamine use [39]. It may also depend on the instruments used to assess psychosis, e.g. self-report [36] vs. formal diagnostic instruments [31,40]. Lastly, there is a positive correlation between amphetamine availability at a community level and the incidence of psychosis in the same population [41-44].
There are few studies on comorbidity and drug interactions, despite the fact that many mental health patients (both minors and adults) are given numerous psychoactive medications concurrently. The effects of Amphetamine and SSRI use during puberty has not been empirically studied, despite the massive physiological changes that occur in the human brain during this change.
Correlation is not causation; however, and the Gordians Knot lies in the unavoidable fact that those who take these medications have already exhibited mental disturbances of a significant nature. We are only beginning to understand the physical workings of the brain, and it is highly likely that most of our current treatments will one day be viewed by professionals with the same repugnance we now hold toward bleeding a person with leeches.
Precisely. We could write clickbait all day long on silly correlations.
Women wearing blue on Wednesdays more apt to have traffic collisions.
We need a study in which the correlation rises to the level of statistical significance. Then we need good replication studies, controlling for various variables that could be impinging on the subjects.
Then, youll have something.
Many years ago I read a story, done by the United States Bureau of Prisons and The Justice Department that said fully 65% of people doing time for violent crimes such as murder, manslaughter, armed robbery, and sexual assault were under the influence of alcohol at the time they committed these kinds of crimes.
>It is Scientology!
Heh. What an amazingly dull thing to say. Do you get triggered because the word “Scientology” gets mentioned? Here: Scientology. Scientology. Scientology. Reeeeeeeee!
Because that site has some articles *about* Scientology in history, by your “logic,” The History Channel is literally Nazis and space aliens. Reeeeeeeeeeeee!
>Read the article.
But then whistleduck might come into contact with actual facts. You heartless beast.
>Correlation does not equal causation.
And platitudes do not equal facts.
Yes, I suppose it would be like force feeding a starving man an 18 ounce steak.
The first few bites would be ecstasy but then pain and vomiting
What is the fancy statistical phrase for when the correlation coefficient approaches 1 (i.e. 100%), then what is indicated?
.95 statistically significant
Then 100% would be even more statistically significant.
I think so said the liberal arts major.
Its called crap.
Mental illness is on the rise. Rampage killings are on the rise. If SSRIs did not exist, would rampage killing be higher? Lower? The same? How the hell would you know?
Platitude or honored dictum? You cant possibly have any training in science to make such a silly comment.
Well stated.
