Hey, I agree with that. The FDA's decsion to put the black box suicide warning on SSRI's was based on data however. Should they decide to do the same with the anticonvulsants (or maybe they have already) it will be based on trial data too.
There has been no proven antisuicide effect of SSRI's or any antidepressant for that matter. The only two drugs that have well established antisuicide effect are clozapine and lithium. Its unfortunate, but true.
