Finnish-Swedish study analyzes link between psychotropic drugs and homicide risk

"A study analysing the Finnish homicide and prescription drug databases discovered that the use of certain drugs that affect the central nervous system are associated with an increased risk of committing a homicide. The greatest risk was associated with the use of painkillers and tranquillizing benzodiazepines, while anti-depressants were linked only to a slightly elevated risk. The study is the first one of its kind in the world."

Why the NSAIDs though?

Opiods can do it. Like flipping a switch.

http://opiodactions.blogspot.com/

2009: Cancer hospital said I had adjustment disorder because I thought they were doing it wrong. Their headshrinker prescribed Effexor, and my life set on a new course. I didn't know what was ahead, like a passenger on Disneyland's Matterhorn, smiling and waving as it climbs...clink, clink, clink.

2010: Post surgical accidental Effexor discontinuation by nurses, masked by intravenous Dilaudid. (The car is balanced at the top of the track.) I get home, pop a Vicodin, and ...

Whooosh...down, down, down, down, down...goes the trajectory of my life, up goes my mood and tendency to think everything is a good idea.
2012: After the bipolar jig was up, now a walking bag of unrelated symptoms, I went crazy on Daytrana (the Ritalin skin patch by Noven), because ADHD was a perfect fit for a bag of unrelated symptoms. I was prescribed Effexor for the nervousness of it, and things got neurological. An EEG showed enough activity to warrant an epilepsy diagnosis rather than non-epileptic ("psychogenic") seizures.

:o 2013-2014: Quit everything and got worse. I probably went through DAWS: dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrome. I drank to not feel, but I felt a lot: dread, fear, regret, grief: an utter sense of total loss of everything worth breathing about, for almost two years.

I was not suicidal but I wanted to be dead, at least dead to the experience of my own brain and body.

2015: I  began to recover after adding virgin coconut oil and organic grass-fed fed butter to a cup of instant coffee in the morning.

I did it hoping for mental acuity and better memory. After ten days of that, I was much better, mood-wise. Approximately neutral.

And, I experienced drowsiness. I could sleep. Not exactly happy, I did 30 days on Wellbutrin, because it had done me no harm in the past. 

I don't have the DAWS mood or state of mind. It never feel like doing anything if it means standing up.

In fact, I don't especially like moving. I'm a brain with a beanbag body.   :unsure:

"The study found, rather surprisingly, that the highest increase in the risk of committing a homicide was associated with opiate painkillers (+92%) and anti-inflammatory painkillers (+206%)."

 

I can only guess the study was designed to find problems with these pain killers so they can sell more psych drugs for pain control... 

 

I can't recall which one but one of these big 3 or so is reported to have said he will design a study to be sure pharma gets the results they want... the one who moved to Florida after being let go... from some other place sorry memory stinks. 

 

And there in lies the problems.. when I was looking to help myself for every study I could find that said one thing I could find another study that said the opposite it was about then I gave up reading them. 

WARNING THIS WILL BE LONG
Had a car accident in 85
Codeine was the pain med when I was release from hosp continuous use till 89
Given PROZAC by a specialist to help with nerve pain in my leg 89-90 not sure which year
Was not told a thing about it being a psych med thought it was a pain killer no info about psych side effects I went nuts had hallucinations. As I had a head injury and was diagnosed with a concussion in 85 I was sent to a head injury clinic in 1990 five years after the accident. I don't think they knew I had been on prozac I did not think it a big deal and never did finish the bottle of pills. I had tests of course lots of them. Was put into a pain clinic and given amitriptyline which stopped the withdrawal but had many side effects. But I could sleep something I had not done in a very long time the pain lessened. My mother got cancer in 94 they switched my meds to Zoloft to help deal with this pressure as I was her main care giver she died in 96. I stopped zoloft in 96 had withdrawal was put on paxil went nutty quit it ct put on resperidol quit it ct had withdrawal was put on Effexor... 2years later celexa was added 20mg then increased to 40mg huge personality change went wild. Did too fast taper off Celexa 05 as I felt unwell for a long time prior... quit Effexor 150mg ct 07 found ****** 8 months into withdrawal learned some things was banned from there in 08 have kept learning since. there is really not enough room here to put my history but I have a lot of opinions about a lot of things especially any of the drugs mentioned above.
One thing I would like to add here is this tidbit ALL OPIATES INCREASE SEROTONIN it is not a huge jump to being in chronic pain to being put on an ssri/snri and opiates will affect your antidepressants and your thinking.

As I do not update much I will put my quit date Nov. 17 2007 I quit Effexor cold turkey.

I was wondering who paid for the study... still don't know and still don't believe it

 

 

The study was carried out in collaboration between Karolinska Institutet and several organisations in Finland; the University of Eastern Finland, Niuvanniemi Hospital, the National Institute for Health and Welfare, the National Research Institute of Legal Policy, Kuopio University Hospital, Helsinki University Hospital, the University of Helsinki, the Kela Research Department, and Epid Research Ltd. This news article is an abbreviation of a press release from University of Eastern Finland.

I can't wait to be wrong.. i can't wait to find a study about such things where the truth is evident not only for the side effects everybody who has been doing this awhile know but for withdrawal.  

I can't wait but its seems that is all we really do....

WAIT!!!

Here are three links from 1bom's comments section, about mood changes w/ nsaids.

 

BTW the authors did some fancy foot work when more than drug was in the personso they wu

1996 These findings suggest that NSAIDs can induce or exacerbate reproducible symptoms (depression, paranoia) in patients with either affective disorder or schizophrenia. These adverse effects may be more severe and frequent than thought previously. NSAID-treated patients should be studied for NSAID-induced psychiatric side effects.

 

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10205728
1999 We wanted to show the NSAIDs’s side-effects. These are non specific, they can be either affective disorders, depersonalization states, hallucinations, or paranoid psychosis (which seems to be the most frequent). The symptomatology is easily suppressed, as soon as NSAIDs are stopped and/or psychotherapeutic symptomatic treatment is started.

 

http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs100670050114

Perhaps Lucky's off hand comment about drug reps was in a passive way telling Chucky she was onto him.. she thought he was a rep... one other take..

people love their drugs.. if it pulls you out of hell and you don't know it was the previous drug that put you there... you love it and defend it lots of us here have been there before.. some for years... we now know better... brains on drugs don't think the same as brains off drugs... this is a simple fact... every pot head loves pot they don't see what it does to them or their lives. pot not a good example but you get the meaning could be booze psych drugs illegal any of them same thing.

peace

Did too fast taper off Celexa 05 as I felt unwell for a long time prior... quit Effexor 150mg ct 07 found ****** 8 months into withdrawal learned some things was banned from there in 08 have kept learning since. there is really not enough room here to put my history but I have a lot of opinions about a lot of things especially any of the drugs mentioned above.
One thing I would like to add here is this tidbit ALL OPIATES INCREASE SEROTONIN it is not a huge jump to being in chronic pain to being put on an ssri/snri and opiates will affect your antidepressants and your thinking.

As I do not update much I will put my quit date Nov. 17 2007 I quit Effexor cold turkey.
