Kanon. Det ligget mycket i detta, men det är inte riktigt sant att antidepressiva inte fungerar, för det gör de- men bara hos de med SVÅR depression. Det är dock en rejäl skillnad mellan svår depression/melankoli och ”vanlig” depression!
Tex. fluoxetin och sertralin skrivs ut till höger och vänster, ofta till barn. Se det mot bakgrunden att jag känner en som är så deprimerad att det orsakar något som närmast kan liknas förlamningar. Antidepressiva är det enda som får denne att komma upp ur rullstolen- vad är nu detta? Använder man inte dessa preparat på barn som känner sig lite ”utanför” i skolan också?
Det är fasansfullt att samma preparat skrivs ut till varenda deprimerad idag, och till och med till BARN på 12-13 år på de mest lösaktiga grunder! Har man ens utrett de långsiktiga följderna av behandlingarna? Ingen kan säga hur preparaten påverkat hjärnan på en 50-åring som tagit sådan här ”medicin” i 20 år..
Jag tycker att hela diagnosen depression ska ses över, och att förskrivningen av dessa ”mediciner” ska blir så strikt kontrollerad som det bara kan gå. Men det kommer väl aldrig att hända, nu när man i stort sett gett upp individuell samtalsterapi (dvs. det som verkligen hjälper eftersom det behandlar orsaken)… Varför är ”vården” inställd på passivisering idag? Det var den VERKLIGEN inte förr på samma sätt alls.
Gjorde dessutom en intressant upptäckt idag som jag gärna vill dela med mig av. Varsågoda, intressanta delar av några SSRI:s molekylstrukturer:
Fluoxetin: 3 fluorbindningar på molekylen
Sertralin: 2 klorbindningar
Fluvoxamin: Även här 3 fluorbindningar
Paroxetin: 1 fluorbindning
Fluor, klor… Starka gifter, och detta är vad miljoner människor tar till frukosten. Visserligen inte i toxiska doser, men det är ändå gifter. Intressant är det nu när det kommit fram att antidepressiva medel ju inte fungerar på de som inte är svårt deprimerade- räkna med att medlen sätter fräs på kroppen, men hur då, egenligen? Det oroar mig…

Hej!
Jag tror på helt drogfria alternativa lösningar för människor som har mentala problem. Speciellt som psykiatrin inte kan säga vad en depression är, hur den uppkommer eller varför den uppkommer.
Jag har skrivit om alternativa lösningar i mina artiklar!
Hälsn,
Peter
Hej! Jag har sedan min barndom varit väldigt orolig och lätt fått ångest. Detta förstärktes då jag fått mina barn. Jag höll på att gå under isen totalt. Jag ville inte äta ”piller” jag ville lära mig må bra utan medicin. Men då läget blev så kritiskt att jag inte längre ville vara med så fick jag medicin. För mig blev mörkret ljusare och jag började sakta leva igen.
För mig har valet varit självklart, jag mår bättre och orkar ta hand om mina barn och vill aldrig tillbaks dit jag var. Men visst är det jätte tufft att läsa dessa artiklar, för det får ju mig att tvivla. Valde jag bara den lätta vägen? Trots att jag vet att jag kämpat tills jag faktiskt inte orkat mer.
Och lyckopiller är ett namn jag helst inte använder, jag är inte överlycklig. Men jag lever ett drägligt liv och går inte längre i mörker.

Hej!
Tack för din kommentar på min hemsida.
Jag har full förståelse och all respekt för det du skriver. Livet är inte alltid lätt.
Det enda jag vill är att lyfta fram och erbjuda alternativ till dessa olika psykdroger.
Det finns alternativ! Och det borde forskas fram och erbjudas fler drogfria alternativ!
Jag tycker inte att någon skall tjäna pengar på människors olycka.

HÅLLER MED TILL 10000000 % det handlar om PENGAR som dom korumperade läkemedelsföretagen vill ha . ANTIDEP. L-U-R-A- bara hjärnan .
Instämmer till 100%
Det enda som blivit ”bättre” är hur kvacksalvarna gör reklam för sina helvetesbrygder.
Det är pengar det handlar om inget annat!
