Thanks Peter for a great critique of the Lancet seminar. It is very concerning that these journals are nothing more than extension of the marketing departments. Our doctors rely on these journals and don’t even ask critical questions. The public pays the price.
As someone who was intimately involved with helping get blackbox suicide warnings on these antidepressants, I can’t believe we are still having these conversations. We must keep our eyes wide open as more and more people are being prescribed these depression pills and suicides rise. They will be blamed on pandemic and “mental illness” and certainly not the pills.
