cinephile Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 The headline says it all. Read it and weep, you button-down medical creeps. You knew what you were doing. Don't even try to lie. Oh, and you better believe this is just the start of a trend. Soon all psych meds will be fair game once all the decades-long corruption is uncovered. http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/doctors-sued-for-creating-valium-addicts-6282542.html Been on SSRIs since 1998: 1998-2005: Paxil in varying doses 2005-present: Lexapro. 2006-early '08: Effexor AND Lexapro!

EFXRob Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Great story...It taken a long time for society to understand... Benzodiazapams were the wonder drug of the 60's...and we are only reading now what many people have known for a generation...???? We are ahead of the curve... hell will break loose when society takes responsibility for the millions taking the wonder of the 90s—the SSRIs and SRNIs... Ask those millions, most who were told they were non addictive—and still strictly considered as such—if they have been successful in stopping... Time for the hippy era definition of addiction to be reviewed...
