Sexual HealthJapan Revises SSRI Warnings--Hostility, Violence
In Japan reports of violence linked to SSRI antidepressants have raised
public awareness to the danger these drugs can pose. A Japanese psychiatrist
acknowledges:
"To say that being able to tell the difference between depressives and mild
manic-depressives is the test of a psychiatrist"s true skill is no
exaggeration."
The absence of any empirically valid diagnostic tool in psychiatry puts
patients at risk of trial and error --i.e., Russian roulette--diagnostic and
treatment methods
She indicates that The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has
investigated news reports about antidepressant users "who developed
increased feelings of hostility or anxiety, and have even committed sudden
acts of violence against others."
After its investigation, the Ministry decided to revise the label warnings
on SSRI antidepressant stating,
"There are cases where we cannot rule out a causal relationship [of
hostility, anxiety, and sudden acts of violence] with the medication."
So, why are millions of American children being prescribed a class of
mind-altering drugs that in some people INDUCE VIOLENCE against self and
others?

murder and suicide in which SSRIs were implicated. So far there are 3,000
