My son was prescribed an SSRI when he was a teenager due to depression and anxiety, I believe it was Prozac. He took this for about two weeks and came downstairs and stated, “I feel nothing on this medicine, I feel like I could kill people and not feel anything”.

I took him off that medicine immediately and started to really research SSRI’s and what I found was horrifying!

In addition, no studies have been done on how these meds affect a growing brain. Did you also know that most of the mass shootings we’ve had, most of the perpetrators were on SSRI’S!

I sometimes feel like the FDA is treating people like their experiments. I thankfully found a wonderful therapist after going to five of them who didn’t give a crap about my son and didn’t do anything to help him.

He did behavioral therapy and that worked wonders although it’s a slow process. He’s now 24 and doing great. Thank god I took him off that crap before it was too late!

I know I might be crucified for this but I wonder sometimes if we forget it’s alright to be sad sometimes.
