Public Record
Please don’t hold me to this statistic but I recently read 80% of Americans are on antidepressants. This is a
staggering number if true. Psychiatrists should be using their skills to safely remove these drugs from their patients’
systems. In reality, It would take at least 1 1/2 years to safely wean a person from one or more of these drugs. Even
longer if the person has been taking them for an extended amount of time.
Please send to Scott Kennelly. I couldn’t find an email address for him.

Of course I’m simplifying a complicated problem but suicide treatment should be looked at and course corrected.
The best thing for a depressed person is exercise. This should be a big part of any treatment plan.
