Even if you have tried to steer away from mainstream media lately, it has been nearly impossible in the last week to not hear about the latest public shooting resulting in deaths of innocent people. Once again this young man in Illinois was on or withdrawing from a psychiatric drug, just like the Virginia Tech tragedy, Red Lake, Columbine, and so many others. In each case the formula was a young male who had been given some type of psychiatric drug (antidepressant, anti-psychotic, anti-anxiety, etc.) that apparently caused the “disconnected” feeling that led them to the shootings.
You don’t have to take our word for it though, there is plenty of evidence. A good place to start is to watch this documentary by Dr. Gary Null on the drugging of our nation’s children. There are also several other related videos that can be seen through Google.
Another place is by checking out the side effects of these drugs that are so readily handed out to millions of Americans. There are now very strict black box warning labels on many of these damaging prescriptions that talk about increased suicidal or homicidal thoughts as well as the numbing or disconnected feeling. Additional evidence was documented and reported on by the Drug-Free Alliance regarding psych drugs being at the top of the list in Emergency Department visits for suicide attempts.
A quick search in Google on side effects of psychiatric drugs tells so much more in just the first two pages of results.
So why are we writing to you about this instead of other drugs? Because these medications are still drugs. All drugs are basically toxins to a person’s body and can have long-lasting adverse effects, despite any supposed benefits. Our goal to help people live drug-free lives includes this realm of prescriptions, not just the commonly-abused painkillers and sedatives.
Whether someone you know has been addicted to street drugs or is dependent on prescription medications, we can help find a workable solution to becoming drug-free. Get help today by visiting www.drug-addiction-rehab.net or call 1-877-421-9659.
