I have had some similar reactions to medictions.
We are all capable of some nasty thoughts, feelings and actions. I don't know why those parts of the brain exist, I'd like to burn them out with a blowtorch.
Some medications seemed to turn on a "survival" mode with me, where I would start to consider doing all sorts of things that I would never consider doing normally.
There are situations in life (I can only imagine which ones), in which people would do some crazy things to survive, it just takes the right cirucmstances to turn those nasty parts of the brain on.
Sometimes the TCA's would make me that way. I think its cause they deprived me of certain sleep cycles, and triggered this "survival mode". Phil Hartman's wife killed him while on Zoloft. She blamed the drug, and I believe her.
