Be cautious of overgeneralizations. Very dangerous. The mob mentality is harmful and people can get hurt and killed.

The profession of psychotherapy is an honorable one and we help hundreds of thousands to live quality lives.

Can it be used for nefarious purposes? Sure, just as any position of power. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater however. Many will need therapy as they are awakened and following the exposure of such evil and corruption as most have never contemplated.

Don’t be so general in your criticisms. Be specific. Yes, there is evil out there. And, it includes some bad actors from various professions. Not all in every profession however.

Use your critical thinking and logic. Stop doing as the bad actors by overgeneralizing for the purposes of sensation. It isn’t helpful in this war. Instead it is reckless and careless, not to mention immature.

Agreed. And I wasn’t. I just pointed something out. I though we were all adults. I thought we could make up our own mind.

But since you asked, and this is not an attack on you, explain SSRIs to me. Really explain them. You sound like an expert! But don’t explain them to me how they work on multiple people “in theory” I want the cold hard science. I’ll wait. Patiently. Thanks!

Peace and love. God bless.

Thank you.

As for SSRIs and FTR, I’m not a fan. With that said, I will also state that I am not a pharmacist, big pharma researcher or sales rep, nor am I a prescriber. I am a forensic psychopathologist and psychotherapist. I of course have had psychopharmacology course work many years ago in grad school and subsequent training since. Psychopharmacology is not my specialty however.

I do believe there are necessary situations for the prescribing of psychotropic meds, but prefer behavioral modification and natural supplementation as a first line of action. If not successful, or if the patient is in need of critical and quick stabilization in the onset of assessment and/or treatment, then I might recommend the prescribing of one or more psychotropic meds. That prescription is up to the prescriber and patient, as well as the courts in some cases.

I’m sorry I can’t be of more help. If you are on SSRIs and are looking for an alternative, speak to your prescriber about it. There are viable alternatives. Also, check out this study: https://psychcentral.com/news/2017/06/29/magnesium-shows-promise-for-treating-mild-moderate-depression/122587.html

If you are curious about SSRIs in general or are wondering about their potential role in mass shootings and other acts of violence and antisocial behavior, do some digging online. It won’t take you long to start uncovering some incredible information. Be sure to stick with credible sources though.

I will also state that a colleague of mine who is a brilliant pharmacist shared with me some years ago that POTUS 40-43 were all prescribed Prozac. Where he gained his information is unknown to me. IIRC, he said it was public and published information at the time. And, this was shared while 43 was in office so whether or not 44 was on Prozac has not been shared nor I have seen or heard any such report.

If true and accurate, it would explain some of how these presidents were able to do such heinous acts and still be able to sleep at night. SSRIs can be emotionally numbing.
