UnfoldingSky Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Here's a compilation of studies that show an increased risk of suicide for those being treated for "bipolar" as compared to those on placebos: http://www.madinamerica.com/forums/topic/bipolar-medication-causes-suicide-not-prevent/ Based on these absolute numbers from these four trials, I have calculated (see Figure S1 showing calculation, and see Figure 2) that active agents are most likely to be associated with a 2.22 times greater risk of suicidal acts than placebo (95% CI 0.5, 10.00). I am not a medical professional and nothing I say is a medical opinion or meant to be medical advice, please seek a competent and trusted medical professional to consult for all medical decisions.
