Psychiatry kills people. That’s the news.
People who have had electroshock therapy commit suicide twenty times more often than do the general public. One out of every ninety-nine people who have ECT dies during the treatment itself. It’s worse for the elderly: from 1974 to 1986 one out of every four elderly people given ECT died.
Anyone taking prescribed antidepressants is two and a half times more likely to commit suicide than those not on antidepressants. It’s estimated that psychotropic drugs kill 42,000 people per year.
Some psychiatrists must feel poorly about what they do. A psychiatrist is six times more likely to commit suicide than the average person, who’s not committing these crimes.
So, who are these guys? How do they get away with doing what the do?

*Although many antidepressants are dangerous to your health – even their own black box
warnings tell you so – do not stop taking them without the help of a qualified physician to
work out an appropriate dosage wind-down plan for you.
