In reply to Prozac Defense Brings Acquittal, posted by kazoo on March 3, 2000, at 0:50:43
I don't know about these crimes that I would think would require premeditation, but when I was put on prozac the first time, I was put on a full dose suddenly, and I had mood swings so severe that I was glad I was off work for two weeks, otherwise I feel I could easily have hurt one or more of the pets I would have been grooming. i was not used to having anger or rage jump up so quickly and easily and I don't know if I would have been able to control myself fast enough had I been in a situation where I could injure. It was pretty unnerving. not to mention I was buzzing so badly I couldn't remember the beginning of my sentenses by the time I got to the end of them.
just my two cent's worth.
