I don’t know what good those meds do. I had a business partner freak out on Prozac.

It could be any of about 3 dozen psychotropic meds from Abilify to Zyprexa and all those in between.

For every bad story you see or hear about, there’s about 1000 cases of lives made better. Before these meds existed, things were far worse for these folks.

Prozac really isn’t for the kind of problem a guy like this has. And, while many would like to say he needs to address the real issue, for serious problems that is impossible without the medication. Instead you end up just helping the person move from crisis to crisis, and never get to core issues.

I’ve both been on medication and known people with serious emotional and psychiatric problems, and I have seen what properly prescribed and used medications can do, and I am not talking about anti-depressants.

My opinion is that if you need medication to prevent you from committing mass murder then a gun should be put to your head and the trigger pulled or you should be locked away until your last breath.
