Antidepressants & pregnancy. Wrote this in 2018 after looking into important work by Obs/Gyn @AdamUrato1 + @BBCPanorama Good to see him on @US_FDA panel July 21st along with other honest experts. @DrDavidHealy @DrMcFillin @taperclinic @joannamoncrieff healingdistress.wordpress.com/2018/04/09/ant…
Thanks for sharing the video. Upon review, Prof. Howard does state that trials show antidepressants are no better than placebo for depression in dementia patients, yet he prescribes them, explaining the placebo effect to families, as patients improve either way. This aligns with…
Psychiatry professor Robert Howard says at Royal College of Psychiatrists International Congress that depression drugs are no better than placebo in people with dementia but he uses the drugs as placebos because “people get better.” He ignores the drugs have serious harms!
Ideological and moral decline of the American psychiatric establishment.
There is no overall evidence that SSRIs are unsafe during pregnancy, and in fact SSRIs can be lifesaving for pregnant women with mood & anxiety disorders. That's a key point of a letter APA sent today to U.S. FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary, expressing its alarm over some of…
What can we do when the most powerful psychiatric organization in the country deliberately misleads the public?

Why would we be prescribing SSRI drugs to women at double the rate of men? When women interface with the medical system & express their emotions in a vulnerable moment many feel coerced into taking an SSRI. As if that vulnerable moment indicates they are "mentally ill". Is…

Anti-depressants in pregnancy. 15 mins in. Panorama presented by @ShelleyJofre youtu.be/BMAEJ1exKPU
We are FAILING postpartum women. Pregnant women are usually seen 10-15 times during their 10 month pregnancy, but postpartum women are seen ONCE after delivery. Just long enough for them to offer some form of birth control and an anti-depressant...
Once a drug is approved, the drugmakers try to expand who has access to it. And the way they go about it tends to be pretty immoral. SSRIs are pushed on pregnant women simply because some women get depressed during or after pregnancy. But SSRIs double the risk of birth defects…
It's interesting that Dr. Gingrich was seen by the pro-SSRI crowd as a sensible voice on the panel. Yet I find it interesting that he didn't mention the pushback he received after he published a paper about SSRIs causing ill effects on the fetus. cuimc.columbia.edu/news/does-ssri…
-Serotonin plays a crucial role in fetal development & SSRIs disrupt the serotonin system. -SSRI use in pregnancy has been associated with miscarriage, birth defects, preterm birth, postpartum hemorrhage, NICU admission, & other issues. -SSRIs alter fetal brain development, with…

There's lots of evidence of where SSRIs can be unsafe in pregnancy - what is the APA talking about.... For starters, here's NHS guidance: "SSRIs aren’t usually recommended during pregnancy, especially during the first 3 months. This is because there may be a risk to the baby".

"No overall evidence" so bizarre and wrong. The risks of cardiac malformations are already in US labels
How long do ye intend to keep covering up the harm of SSRIs? These 💊 aren't "life saving". After 3 yrs they caused mania / "psychosis" (Yale study from 2001) then Tardive Dysphoria 17 yrs. Yet APA encourage 🤰women to have a baby develop in it! 💔🤦♀️ healingdistress.wordpress.com/2018/04/09/ant…
I love the APA and want it to succeed, but I am not sure that this statement is most representative of the sources they cite. To say "There is no overall evidence that SSRIs are unsafe during pregnancy" They cite Clarke et al. 2023's white paper, which indeed says "Recent…
“A lot of women who are interested in starting families start to question what their medications are doing and what the risks are... neurodevelopmental problems, bleeding during pregnancy, congenital heart malformations. They've never heard of these things – and they feel…
ICYMI: Highlights from yesterday’s expert panel on SSRIs and pregnancy. “Serotonin may play a crucial role in the development of the organs of a baby in utero, specifically the heart, brain, and even the gut. SSRIs have also been implicated in different studies to be involved in…
If you take psych meds and then have sexual issues, health problems, emotional and relational decline, yes, you need to acknowledge that you’re putting something harmful into your body daily and there is backlash to that.
When was the last time there was this much evil in the world?
How do we create more "depression" to sell more drugs? We get you to not trust your emotions. Judge them. Even fear them. This will ensure we have more people depressed, anxious and dependent upon our product. Part 3 of my FDA panel presentation.
