"So why would people be scared by a black box warning, if they were already experiencing suicidal thoughts?? What complete conjecture, the only way to find out is to talk to the families."
I think in some cases the black box warnings cause doc's to be less willing to suggest these meds to patients. That has to be a hard sell to parents,
"I want to put your depressed kid on a med that has a warning about increased suicide risk".
