We may not have a clear idea of what, if anything, they may do, but it scares me nonetheless.
I already knew that antidepressants may initially increase suicidal ideation. I can monitor that.
I also don't want her dependent on medication because I gave her medication, so to speak. If that's incorrect, I'd love to know.
What he writes holds no merit to me. The site that claims to have these studies that he shoves down our throats, also holds no merit if you look at the supposed data on medication related suicide. There's nothing there except for a statement based on... well nothing. I believe that it's merely a scare tactic.
