"I would agree and have experienced firsthand damage caused to the brain from long-term exposure to ssri antidepressants"

I know exactly what you are talking about. People are very quick to tell you that the drugs don't cause brain dammage (probably because they're on the drugs and they don't want to think of that possability) Or because they don't want you to do anything rash.

But in the end, I am the one who has to lived in the F*d up brain. So if you don't really have a better explaination than I'm going to stick to mine than you very much.

That "big study" that eveyone likes to refer to, you know the one that says that antidepressants are neuroprotective. Thats is kind of not the whole truth. The fact is that the study used tianeptine, (which was indeed neuroprotective) but fluoxetine (prozac) offered no such protection.

The picture is not as clear cut as the drug companies would like you to think.
