Making Connections

When I was younger, around 13 or so years old, I was prescribed Zoloft. When I was taking these pills, I kept having thoughts I wouldn't usually have. I had to stop taking them because I couldn't stand those constant thoughts. I knew it was the pills that were making me think like that.

Years later, I read a book called: "Die, Grandpa, Die!" It was about a guy who was about 14 or so when he killed his Grandfather. He had been taking those pills. Zoloft. It is supposed to be an anti-depressant. I knew then that the pills were definitely what caused me to have those thoughts.

Today, I was watching a documentary about Columbine. Eric Harris was taking those pills, too. Had he not been taking those pills, would he still had had those thoughts? Would he have acted on those thoughts? The doctors had put him on another form of the same medication when he realized that the pills were affecting his thoughts. Could those pills have been producing the same thoughts?

I know it sounds crazy that pills can make you think things you might not have thought about without the pills. I know it sounds absolutely crazy. But it did happen to me. Only I didn't act on the thoughts I was having. If I did, I would have been in jail a long time ago, or dead.

I'm not making any excuses for them acting on those thoughts. None whatsoever. It's just a connection I've made. It bothers me to know that these pills affect people like that and yet they still make them, they still prescribe them to people without KNOWING the DANGERS. Perhaps they do know, but yet they are waiting for a lawsuit to make them stop producing them. It bothers me that doctors think they are helping people by prescribing ZOLOFT. Which should be BANNED. Or at least it should not be given to minors and people should be aware that if they are taking them, they could have side affects such as homicidal and suicidal thoughts. I will keep saying this OVER and OVER AGAIN and AGAIN. Until I stop kids from taking this sh*t they call 'medication'. Just because doctors want you to think it is going to be good for you, doesn't mean that it is.... Take a word from someone who has BEEN THERE, BEEN ON THIS, and heed my warning that it is NOT GOOD FOR YOU OR THOSE YOU LOVE. I don't care what the pharmaceutical company that makes it says about me TELLING THE TRUTH about it. At least I could be saving a life. They are the ones destroying lives. People take it because they are depressed, yet they end up thinking about killing people? How healthy is that? It's not!
