I agree with YOU!
They pass out these meds like crazy and it’s based on SUBJECTIVE feelings about a person. I’d hate to know how many people commit suicide on these meds.
You may hate to know but here it is:

“Fergusson et al conducted a systematic review of published randomised controlled trials comparing SSRIs with either placebo or other active treatments in patients with depression and other clinical conditions.4 They found an almost twofold increase in the odds of fatal and non-fatal suicidal attempts in users of SSRIs compared with users of placebo or other therapeutic interventions (excluding tricyclics). No increase in risk was seen, however, when only fatal suicidal attempts were compared between SSRIs and placebo. Finally, no differences were observed when overall suicide attempts were compared between users of SSRIs and tricyclic andidepressants.”
I believe that as of 2004, when i did my thesis on Ritalin, most people on ritalin end up having to take anti-depressants and hard-core psychotropic drugs to counteract all the side-effects of the Ritalin and anti-depressants. Then these kids end up with mental illnesses brought on by the medication and the idea that taking a pill makes problems go away. Now we have studies saying that the biggest type of drug abuse by youngsters in America is prescription drug abuse. I wonder why.
Also, children under the age of 18 aren’t medically cleared to take Prozac because of a greater incidence of “suicidal ideation.” And ritalin also causes heart defects and makes kids under the age of 10 die of heart attacks.
I agree with YOU!” Unfortunately, none of the front runners for the Nomination for POTUS from the Democratic or Republican side agree with you.
The US SENATE and HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES are filled with scoundrels as well. What to do?
