Antidepressant Withdrawal And Dependency
Monday, May 21st, 2012“
Because if you tell a lie with enough…
(1) emotion (2) volume and (3) repetition, it eventually becomes more or less accepted as fact. Whether or not antidepressants cause dependency in their users depends on how you define the word ‘dependency’. Dependency used to be defined as either building up a tolerance to the drug or as having withdrawal symptoms.
Either issues of tolerance or withdrawal. Simple and to the point. Easily measured or observed. Objective.
Now, however, for a drug to cause dependency there must be indications of tolerance and withdrawal and at least one of the following four criteria: (1) Strong desire to take the substance.
(2) Hard to control drug-taking behavior. (3) Neglect of other interests. (4) Keep taking the substance after evidence of harmful effects.
Who in the world would possibly have a strong desire to take antidepressants? Who could possibly have a hard time restricting their dosage? How could you neglect other interests simply by taking a depression medication?
