I'm going to threadjack back to motive

Does anyone else think that maybe anti-depressants are actually the problem? In almost every case of these mass shootings and attempted mass shootings or weird stabbing 75 times or the mother drowning her kids and what not, it seems the person was on anti-depressants then abrubtly stops taking them.

After reading about these drugs in my opinion they are extremely over prescribed. Plus the whole system seems to reward doctors and the people taking these pills (like the happy pill commercials on tv). These drugs should really only be given to the extremely mentally ill schizophrenic or manic depressive type people. Even on the labels now they say things like 'increases suicidal tendencies.'

The doctors should be telling people to get more sunshine and exercise and eating correctly rather than prescribing these pills.

My understanding some people taking them start to have diminishing returns and have to up the dose to get the good feeling. Then some decide to stop taking them for one reason or another. Wouldn't that cause a day after exstasy type depression, except for weeks instead of a couple days. I guess that might cause someone to flip out on society.

I admit I don't know a lot about anti-depressants, it's just a thought.
