A REMINDER: IT IS EASIER TO GET DOWN OFF A MOUNTAINTOP ONE GUARDED STEP AT A TIME THAN TO JUMP FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM.
No matter how few or how many side effects you have had on these antidepressants, withdrawal is a whole new world. The worst part of rapid withdrawal does not hit for several months AFTER you quit. So even if you think you are doing okay you quickly find that it becomes much worse.

Concerns about the ethics of clinical trials do not exist merely in the realm of speculation. The GVK exposés are not unusual. An increasing number of reports are coming to light of unethical and illegal practices that exploit people’s social and economic vulnerability, subject them to serious risks without their knowledge and consent, and do not even assure them of access to the drugs developed from the trials

I went to the Doc to see what’s wrong with me,
He turned out to be a pill-pusher MD,
As he reached for his pen with the drug name on it,
I said, “Stop right there, mon frer, I don’t want it!”
He said, “You must be crazy,” as I broke for the door,
Crashed into somebody, and landed on the floor,
With a slutty type of woman lookin’ down at me,
She had the names of different drugs displayed on her bikini.
