[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 187868, member: 1498"] I'm sure that it will come as no surprise to anyone that I absolutely believe that any of the antidepressants can cause homicidal ideation and compulsive behavior like this child displayed. Not only did I see it in my own son (along with irrational, psychotic thinking), the clinical research on SSRIs identified these behaviors starting with the preapproval testing on Prozac, the first one. And I belive Christopher Wittman is a victim. He had relatively minor anger issues and suicidal ideation prior to being put on Paxil when he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital. He was switched to Zoloft when he came out of the hospital. The child more likely had psychological problems as a result of abandonment and abuse combined with poor parenting, rather than a neurological deficiency that required medication. One needs to keep in mind that virtually all these rather bizarre murders committed by young children -- a realtively recent phenomenon, by the way -- have involved children who take some sort of medication which lists hostility or aggression as side effects. To ignore that is foolish. ETA: I see MWM and I were typing the same response at the same time, right down to the psychosis part. [/QUOTE]
