I have one question to the friends/family members in regards to their loved one who committed suicide. 

If this is too personal to answer, I totally understand your wish for privacy.  But I need to ask -
Was she on medication for depression? The REASON I ASK is because my family and I have experienced several suicide deaths in the past 3 years alone that were triggered by antidepressants. Medications of these sorts are KNOWN TO CAUSE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS AND/OR ACTIONS. And when you mix that with a brain & heart that’s already enduring a great deal of pain – these poor souls don’t stand a chance.

My family and I are becoming very concerned and outraged at the pill-pushing epidemic brought on by greedy physicians and pharmaceutical companies that seem to be aimed at these extremely fragile and vulnerable people who are in mental distress, which ONLY leads to them ending their lives rather than making them “feel better”. I would really appreciate any information on this. I REALLY don’t want to sound nosey either – if this is asking too much – then don’t even worry about responding, I totally respect and understand that.

But my heart, like yours now, is still hurting from my Aunt who suddenly took her life in 2009. She was an incredible mother of a beautiful son and daughter, amazing sister to my Mother, a loving daughter, aunt, friend, the list goes on. My Aunt stated in her suicide letter that the antidepressants were not making her feel “right” and that she’s “not sure if her psychiatrist knows what they are doing”. I would do anything to go back in time and to have been able to save her. 

And now, a dear family friend of ours just committed suicide 2 weeks ago after taking antidepressants for a week, and you could imagine our concern and outrage has increased after this too. 

Again – I don’t want to sound nosey or weird asking about her medical information, but when I heard this story and read these comments, I was very concerned and curious if antidepressants were the culprit of this tragic suicide, just like my Aunt’s and friend’s. 

If you can let me know, I’d appreciate it. I do not want specifics. I’d just like to know if she was being medicated on these drugs for depression or not. Thank you… 

And to anybody else reading this — sometimes ANTIDEPRESSANTS ARE NOT THE ANSWER. THESE PSYCHOTROPIC DRUGS CAUSE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS AND/OR ACTIONS. THEY KILLED MY DEAR AUNT AND PARENTS’ BEST FRIEND OF 20+ YEARS. IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS DEPRESSED AND CAN’T FIND THE WAY OUT – PRACTICE YOGA, GO TO CHURCH, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, FIND A GOOD THERAPIST (PSYCHIATRIST SHOULD BE YOUR LAST LAST LAST RESORT), TALK THROUGH YOUR STRUGGLES, DON’T JUMP TO MEDICATION, TAKE WALKS, EXERCISE, LISTEN TO/PLAY MUSIC, FIND A NEW HOBBY, SPEND TIME WITH THE PEOPLE THAT LOVE YOU. DEAL WITH YOUR PROBLEMS NATURALLY, NOT CHEMICALLY. THIS TOO SHALL PASS! GIVE IT TIME! PUSH THROUGH IT!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! THESE DOCTORS AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES ARE IN IT FOR THE MONEY, THE VACATIONS, THE PERKS, THE BENEFITS FOR THEMSELVES – NOT FOR YOUR WELL-BEING. BUYER BEWARE. PLEASE LISTEN TO WHAT I AM SAYING! 

My heart and prayers go out to this woman and her friends/family, I know what they are going through all too well. You are all in my prayers, keep your head up and CELEBRATE the memories and the time you were blessed to have been able to spend with her. GOD BLESS YOU. <3
