Excellent find!

 

I didn't know there were 250,000 attempted suicides and 25,000 actual suicides on Prozac.

Nope, neither did I .... I'm at a loss for words to express my thoughts/feelings/reactions .... I just pray for The Lord to wreak vengeance on these drug companies and all those who work for them who know how evil the drugs are and yet continue to be involved in the process.....

Remember Gary Larson's "Smite" cartoon?

I'm too scared to read the article because I'm battling a bit ATM & my plan should I fail in my recovery was to go on a small dose of Prozac .... OMG isn't there any safe antidepressants ?..:-(

Wagtail, for heaven's sake, stop reading anything in the "Cymbalta in the news" forum... your only focus right now is to take your meds, at the times and doses your therapist tells you, and to limit your activities until you get good and stable and well settled into therapy ... you do not need to be reading anything that's going to get that mind of yours all wound up! ;-)

I think I've tried almost every anti depressant accept for Zoloft. I distinctly remember Prozac making me feel angry a lot. Neither homicidal nor suicidal thankfully.
I think as long as we are aware that suicide is a consideration with these drugs and pay close attention to how we feel each day, we can manage.
This is where support is important. Since I have nobody to talk to, I know I have you guys now and I'm grateful. I've been on well butrin for years and it seems to work in my case. During this withdrawal, I have made sure that my son checks on me if I sleep too long. Not scaring him just letting him know that sleeping a lot has become a side effect during the weaning.

Wagtail,

As FN said, don't worry yourself right now. And you certainly need to concentrate on taking those meds and wean when the time is right. FN shared some scary links for me in my bead counting post and I dare not read them at the moment or I may get myself wound up too.

Just keep telling yourself there is a whole circle of friends here for you anytime you need us! That's what I've been telling myself daily!

FN,
I seem to recall the overwhelming suicide rate for Prozac was mostly in children and teens. That was years ago though. Why any doc would prescribe it to a minor knowing the stats is beyond comprehension!

Mich
