True, true. I used to have migraines, and took these medicines, but to
my
surprise, when I was about 42, I grew out of the headaches. I no longer
take the stuff.
I was on it long enoug to know that there is no imparement, taken at
those
low levels.
I will differ with you on this. My wife has suffered from migraines
since she was 6 years old. She is now considered 100% diabled due to
the combination of drugs that were used several years ago to try and
treat her daily migraine. The so called mild anti-depressants were the
major factor in creating the problems she has. Prozac is one of the
worst that you can take. She now has tardive diskensia, as well as
several other problems, which are all a direct result of the use to
seratonin uptake inhibitors.
If you check the history of most of the people that seemed to suddenly
snap and kill one or more, you will find that they were currently on
or had been rapidly removed from drugs in this class. If you think
that crap is mild, check out the book Toxic Psychiatry (sp?) by
Breslin and look at how much Eli-Lily pays out in lawsuit settlements
every year on just Prozac.
BTW... you realize that Prozac is just a slightly altered from of LSD
didn't you?

It sounds like your wife's problem was much more severe than mine. I did
not take the prozac family of med, and I did not take multiple things. I
only took an antiseziure medicine, imipramine, and like I said, I now don't
need it. I do sympathize with your wife, and hope and pray for relief for
her.
Imipramine is also an anti-depressant. I have first hand knowledge if
you want to hear about my divorce....and I'm sure no one does. It was
about 15 years ago anyway. It probably saved my life by keeping me
level-headed when I wasn't. I thought and decided that I was feeling
fine one day and flushed them all down the toilet. The next evening I
was sitting at the kitchen table bawling uncontrollably for no
apparent reason.....at least to me. I refilled my prescription.
About a month later I was through with them. The trick is to taper off
gradually. I can see the danger with a quick withdrawl.
