I'm of the contention that anyone can feel sucidial under the right (wrong) circumstances. Suicidal has a lot to do with brain chemistry. Sometimes drugs can change brain chemistry for the worse.
Perhaps they don't induce such feelings in anyone, but akathesia is a horrable feeling. It instills a sence of urgency to everything. Its hard to relax your body. Its hard to feel comfortable just sitting. Its hard to get deep restoritive sleep. It feels like something is pushing you to know, or do.
My friend once took an SSRI' and said he'd never do it again. He said that the extreme sence of inner turmoil that the drug induced was very much like a bad experience he had on LSD.
Some people, seem very sensitive to these types of effects.
