A deadly epidemic, psychiatric drugs

These deaths are very early deaths among patients taking psychiatric drugs. When I heard Mr. Whitaker quote one recent study that put the average age of death among a group of medicated patients at 45, I was stunned. Forty-five years old. With such a large percentage of the American population taking psychiatric drugs, this is adeadly epidemic. This is a medical emergency. I’m 47. I’m mostly unable to leave my house from the iatrogenic damage psychiatric drugs left me with. I do this blog that I might help others make better choices. I was not given a choice. Today, drug-free, my mind and spirit are clear, but my body is wrecked. Please educate yourselves.
