A suicide epidemic now grips the United States, but that news comes in conjunction with several alarming reports — including underreporting by pharmaceutical companies of the scope of suicides related to antidepressant use, as well as an increase in overdoses by those prescribed anti-anxiety medication.

https://archive.is/l8xW5

>“An estimated 9.3 million adults (3.9% of the adult U.S. population) reported having suicidal thoughts in the past year,” said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in their 2015 suicide statistics. In fact, “suicide was the tenth leading cause of death for all ages in 2013.”

>But the issue isn’t constrained to the U.S. A study by the Equality and Human Rights Commission in 2015 found the rate of suicide of British males between the ages of 45 and 49 had risen a dramatic 40 percent in just seven years. Of retired males, or pensioners, the increase in rate of suicides was 10 percent.

>Around the globe, according to the World Health Organization in 2015, suicide is now the third leading cause of death — representing an increase of 60 percent over the past 45 years.

>On top of these striking statistics, a recent review of common antidepressants — selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) — found not only are they responsible for increased suicides, but pharmaceutical companies underreport those effects.

>Those antidepressants, rather than necessarily aiding people, actually double the rate of suicide and aggressive behavior for adolescents and young people under the age of 18. Though the review evidenced the marked increase in that age group, it also found a “serious underestimation of the harms” by Big Pharma meaning older adults likely have increased risk of suicide, as well.

>“Antidepressants don’t work in children, that is pretty clear, in the randomized trials children say that they don’t work for them, but they increase their risk of suicide.

>“What I get out of this colossal under-reporting of suicides is that [antidepressants] likely increase suicides in all ages … it is absolutely horrendous that [pharmaceutical companies] have such disregard for human lives.”

>The Nordic Cochrane Center carried out the review, which was analyzed by University College London (UCL). As the National Post reported, Dr. Tarang Sharma of the Nordic Cochrane Center stated, “The analysis suggests that clinical study reports, on which decisions about market authorization are based, are likely to underestimate the extent of drug-related harms.”

>Those companies misrepresented patient symptoms and antidepressant effects in several ways. According to the Post, “More than half of the suicide attempts and suicidal thoughts had been misrecorded as emotional instability or worsening of depression. In summary trial reports from the drugs giant Eli Lilly, suicidal attempts were missing in 90 percent of cases.”

>Even further, deaths by overdose of anti-anxiety drugs known as benzodiazepines — such as those marketed under the name brands Xanax and Valium — have quadrupled in the last two decades. This quadrupling occurred alongside a tripling in such prescriptions.

>“We found that the death rate from overdoses involving benzodiazepines. also known as ‘benzos,’ has increased more than four-fold since 1996 — a public health problem that has gone under the radar,” said Dr. Marcus Bachhuber of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, as NBC News reported. “Overdoses from benzodiazepines have increased at a much faster rate than prescriptions for the drugs, indicating that people have been taking them in a riskier way over time.”

>Though the specific causes for the distressing global uptick in suicides aren’t entirely clear, antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication don’t appear to be helping. In the meantime, Big Pharma reaps profit while carelessly tossing aside all human costs and ominously covering them up.

>If you or someone you know is feeling suicidal please call 1 (800) 273-8255 and talk to a skilled, trained counselor at a crisis center in your area, anytime 24/7.

I went through puberty on ritalin and seroquel.

I became homeless by 16 and living on the streets of SF, wanted to die and did any drug I got my hands on. I drank the cool aide and dived headfirst into sjw-ism.

I even had a black trans "Girl"friend.

It took me months before I was comfortable enough to fuck it. I did not like men but I thought it was only because I was so hateful.

After I had sex with that tranny for the first time I cried and freaked out because I felt wrong. I pushed past those feelings until I hit a point where trannies got me off. I became addicted.

If it wasn't for occupy wall street I would've never woken up. That fake movement showed me that the so called "99%ers" were EXACTLY the same as the so called "1%ers"

The 1% live off the hard work of regular people

>Occupy wall street was ran 100% on donated food and supplies

The 1% are lazy good for nothings that sit around smoking cigars and chatting about how they hate lower class people

>Occupy was all people going to "sit-ins" while smoking blunts and talking shit about people who were more successful

The 1% care more about their agendas than the people

>Occupy harassed police officers and blocked the BART system from service which ONLY effects regular people commuting

I could go on for quite a while.

The parallels are there.

Occupy wall street taught me what a zombie I was and how I had been taught to not think for myself.

I wasn't inn charge of my mind or body.

One of the things that sticks with me the most is how I mentally pushed through physical illness and intense negative feelings in order to transform myself into a deluded homosexual who convinced himself fucking a tranny was the same as fucking a woman.

Ill never be able to take back what I did but I'm glad that isn't my fate. To die like that.

P.s

Sexuality is completely a choice.

You can make yourself any sexuality you want if you push hard enough.

It was the hardest thing I've went though in my head so far.

yeah, i love those ANTIdepressant drugs that you see on tv that warn you of symptoms like "depression and suicidal thoughts" both while taking the drug, AND after you stop taking the drug. So basically once you decide to take the drug, you're fucked. How the hell does shit like this get past the FDA? Well I know how. There was a time when even mild side effects would result in non-approval, but somewhere along the way pharma became such a huge billion dollar business that it just became too big a blow to the companies to deny them their approvals (especially when the CEOs of pharma companies and FDA execs started becoming the same people going through the same revolving doors) Hooray for capitalism! May the dollar, forever diminishing in value thanks to inflation, forever outvalue human life, whose worth is spiraling down even faster.

No more than you'd work for Microsoft and Apple at the same time. They have competing interests, and shilling is a full-time job anyway.

>How much do they pay you guys?

It varies, of course. At my level, it's $54,000 per annum with medical and vision covered. There is a dental plan, but they don't pick up the premium for that. It's not bad since most shill jobs you can telecommute for, so you can live someplace inexpensive. Oh, and we're not classed as managerial, so we get overtime when a big event comes up like a mass shooting or an important primary, or, in my case, bad news about the pharmaceutical industry.

It's worth noting that we don't work directly for the entities we shill for, of course. We work for contractors, or as freelancers. I work for a contractor because I don't want to have to handle all of my own tax and medical shit. You make more as a freelancer in terms of gross income, but you also have to take care of your own SS, medical, etc. It's a headache.

>It seems like pretty easy work and I think I would be good at it.

I don't think so. People who come here aren't intelligent enough to be shills, sorry. I only come here because I'm getting paid.

What the fuck is going on in this thread?

Are you implying that big pharma is making pills given to people who aren't suicidal such that they can make them suicidal, thus depriving them of all business with the patient?

Or are you implying that the pills they sell don't work half as well as they advertise, and that you're better off not taking them?

Lemme explain this briefly and slowly.

Depression med's are shit not necessarily because they spike suicide rates for some unknown or undocumented reason, it's more because it does as prescribed, they're "happy pills"

There are two problems with this though:

1.) They dont actually resolve the real psychological reasoning behind your depression, only numb you to it.

2.) Like all things that trigger happiness, absence of consistently positive stimuli can cause sadness and in depressed individuals can cause relapse.

3.) Actually has Physical Side-Effects to discontinuation, nausea, dizziness, etc. Which when combined with the lack of consistent amounts of serotonin well…

4.) For young adults and children it increases chance of suicide by a massive amount, like 80% among kids who were, get this, already suffering from major depressive disorder.

5.) Doesnt help that young adults also like to dabble and experiment with drugs more so than older folks and tons of drugs combined with anti depmeds causes Serotonin syndrome which is basically, seizure > coma > ? > death.

The establishment doesnt give a shit because insurance agencies also make a killing off therapy since sending someone to a state run asylum is pretty much forfeiting them to the govn't (since a good portion of the psych evaluations are shoddy and the doctors are overworked at best). Also since the next generation now has a medical record and a suicide risk, premiums will likely go up in combination with previous bullshit, so yeah.

Basically, not enough people were getting sick and staying in hospitals so they made hospitals fuck all expensive even for a brief visit. Asylums are the new consistent means of farming the populace for money, since why would you risk the cattle running off and improving, when you can keep them in the same vicious cycle of medication and exposure to actually insane individuals and circumstances?

Many times they don't even do that. I've been on several kind anti-depressants over the years, and for the most part, all they do is mildly sedate you.


 No.322164

I used to think that I was depressed until I realized that I just had a shit life devoid of happiness. Alas, realizing the problem and becoming aware of it does nothing to resolve it. Winning the lottery does, as not having to work constantly just to stay alive does wonders for one's outlook on the future.

Why, with riches, I could own a house, and own a car that isn't half my age, learn new skills in my newfound free time, go visit new places, and create odds and ends with my engineering and artistic skills.

I'd muse on this a while longer, but I have to get my shoes on so I can start my eleven hour shift working for the phone company, taking abuse from people who can't find the home button on an iPhone.

For example, it is a priority of the shilling industry to disrupt the important work of the individual known as /killcen/. His critical anti-censorship work is so important, and so devastating to his opponents, that several shills are assigned to him full time in order to destroy his reputation.

You are fucking sick.

I grew up in this shit.

My parents were urged to put me on a daily dose of ritalin before I was 6.

And as I came to my pre-teen years and started to become very upset with the drug and it's side effects (and it's intended effects) the neurologists did everything they could to convince my parents that the drug could not be responsible for the ills and that an increased dosage was required.

I fought over it all through highschool, I couldn't kick the stuff anymore no matter how awful it made me feel, I had never done any work in my life without ritalin and I wouldn't get any support from my parents or any faculty in trying to learn how to perform without it.

I remember hearring from other kids who had it worse than me.

When they complained of depression effects when on ritalin, they were put on both ritalin and anti-depressants, to no positive effect.

I don't know how you and the shit you reply to can have such an infantile and pure vision for how the world around you works.

Everything you have no experience with just "works" in the way you think it should.

It's the kind of thinking that goes hand in hand with "you have no reason to hide anything from the police! They're all perfect and respectable people who only have their duty in mind!"

Serotonin is not a joke, it can do considerable damage to one's heart and cardiovascular system if significant quantities are allowed to circulate in your bloodstream if it does not cross the brain blood barrier.

SSRIs themselves are not the panacea that so many doctors seem to be portraying them as, and very few actual disorders should be treated peripherally with them when a more direct treatment for certain disorders is more effective and less potentially harmful.

Serotonin syndrome is an extremely unpleasant thing to experience, and if you were convinced by a doctor that you absolutely needed to be on such a medication as an SSRI and was told quite fallaciously that it was the "only" thing that would help you, it would start to feel like an unbearable existence having to contend with the side effects of more serotonin than your body actually needs, much less if you actually need any additional help with your serotonin receptors at all.

I could very easily see somebody killing themselves if they had to endure an excess of serotonin which can cause severe agitation, headaches, difficulty with motor control and involuntary muscle movements.

If you thought this was what you had to live with or have no other recourse for your problems, which might not even be psychological, you would probably start to consider ending your life as well.

As someone studying Pharmacology It is my understanding that antidepressants cause an increase in suicide because the people taking them where suicidal before medication, but because of their depression they had little motivation to do anything. Many cant even get out of bed, thus when the medication starts to kick in they have the motivation to get up and act on their suicidal thoughts. Its not until 2 to 4 weeks that the full effects of the medication take hold which is why most of the suicides on antidepressants happen early in the drug therapy. Additionally once on antidepressants an abrupt stop in the medication can cause the individual to revert back to their suicidal idealization. In my opinion the good they do outweighs the potential bad.

SSRIs tend to make you more impulsive, as a result of the increased reception of serotonin. Can attest, am on. I'm much better at jumping in and out of tasks and socializing where before I was bedbound and mostly mute, but I'm a more impulsive buyer too so…

So, if someone was deeply stressed with suicidal thoughts, they might just act on it. Medical effects may differ along with personal mental composition, so I don't claim to be the one case to represent all cases.

Honestly haven't figured out that they only put "increased" risk of suicide, if it's in comparison to a control group.

Anyone who takes this toxic crap willingly is brain-dead stupid (children excluded because they have no choice, its the parents fault).

no, it's a dependence cycle. It's similar to how drug dealers ensure repeating customers, but instead of handing out addictive samples, the process is far more insidious because the meds AREN'T addictive due to stigmas against addictive substances, so they have to rely on psychological manipulation.

You say they have problems by preying on their insecurity, then feed them pills that slowly make them feel worse, while saying that it's working and if they don't they'll say "I guess this isn't the medicine for you", then they put you on a medicine that "works" and it continues until the person learns or they die.

Pharmaceutical companies make billions, psychiatric firms get WAY more customers at the expense of the people.

No one person is responsible for it, but the system needs to be corrected or burned down into the ground and violently.

They do this to kids and they did this to me.

They deserve more then hell for this.

If this is a deal where they're doing this as a "necessary" thing to support the country, instead of just being the greasing of hands, then the whole country deserves to burn for it.

If you have to be such a villain to hold up a flawed society like this then it's a better idea for you to die while others find a better way to operate the country.

It isn't even the parent's fault because these people are preying on their trust in the system, a flaw that was instilled into them by the culture that came after the wars.

This is exploitation, pure and simple.

Got back after a few weeks. Lemme just address some stuff.

>They never promise to…

Not in a legal sense no. But having doctors, parents, psychiatrists, and even their ads basically offering you a cure is pretty nasty.

Just watch some antidepressant commercials big pharma puts on the tube, shits disgusting.

>it doesnt cause happiness

Biochemically derived from tryptophan, serotonin is primarily found in the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract), blood platelets, and the central nervous system (CNS) of animals, including humans. It is popularly thought to be a contributor to feelings of well-being and happiness.[9]

In a philosophical sense no. In a biological sense, yes.

>Just like thousands of other medications have side effects…

Yeah im not stating that "AD'S ARE THE ONLY MEDS WITH SIDE EFFECTS BAN THEM NOAW" but they promote repeated use. AD discontinuation syndrome along with seratonin syndrome are two of the most commonly reported with ADDS basically being withdrawal.

There are a few other possible side effects but antidepressants as we know them now were only popularized in the fucking 90's.

They also filled the same market that the tranquilizers fulfilled in the 60's. I don't know too much about that persay, but something to be considered.

>They were most likely already suicidal

Then why is this medication, that's known to increase suicidal thoughts and actions, being used to treat those with major depressive order and suicidal tendencies?

Genuinely not sure if you're just mislead or a shill, but If you apply some critical thinking, it's pretty easy to figure out.

While these antidepressants have practical uses on those who do suffer from an imbalance and I can support that scientifically aswell as anecdotally, I can't support their general use right now as due to the nature of the pharmaceuticals and medical care here in burgerstan.

Anyone who fills in a few bubbles on a checklist will be pipelined antidepressants. They are the easiest prescription drug to get access to in the US. 10% of the US population, a lil over 31 million people, are being treated with Antidepressants.

Oh yeah, I don't know if you live in burgerstan, but healthcare here is shit and mental healthcare is worse. Sure if you have lots of money, you can afford plenty of therapy, treatment, medication, etc. However if you're poor and generally speaking have more reasons to hate life than your average Trust Fund Kiddie, just taking the medication is your only real short term solution.

This, as any REAL medical professional (the one you cant afford) will tell, just treating such an injury wont heal it, you need to go to therapy for that, the therapy that you probably cant afford.

Depression is very real but I believe the majority of those its treating are misdiagnosed, but with shit doctors and shit treatment being the standard, misdiagnosis is very possible. Take that alongside the fact that 10% of the US population is currently being treated with antidepressants…

We've seen pharmaceutical companies disregard ethics for profit in the past. If you're to wide eyed and naive to see that I'd point to Shkreli and leave it at that.

The pharmaceutical companies make far more profit selling treatments at a low cost, then cures at a premium. They also make a good profit by making sure as many people as possible take their treatment, regardless of whether they truly need it.

This is not a conspiracy it's capitalism.

TL;DR Mistreatment, lack of quality mental healthcare, overprescription and popular misconceptions in the industry keep antidepressants popular. So big pharma has vested interest in making "cures" hard to get, but treatments easy to buy.
