"Don't some of these antidepressant drugs have the documented side effect of causing suicidal thoughts?"
All anti-depressants should have that warning, about suicide. Drug companies have gotten away with hiding how depressing anti-depressants are for some people.
If this family has money, maybe they can fight the drug company, would be good to see as so many not so monied famiies just try to cope with the terrible grief that comes with suicide from anti-depressants.

Which begs the question of what IS the purpose of anti-depressants ... I thought their purpose was to PREVENT depression and suicidal tendencies. If their side effects are just the opposite, then why do drug companies continue to peddle them for depression? Do I see dollar signs mixed into the equation here? Methinks I do.

*gently clears throat*
When I first went on antidepressants there was a brief period when I was feeling enough better that suicide looked like a viable option. Before the meds, I was quite literally too depressed to kill myself...
