Albertville Realschule Blame Game II – Antidepressants
March 17, 2009Germany Teen Prescribed Antidepressants Kills Fifteen in a Drug Rage:
Don’t take that headline too seriously. It’s not from what I would call a legitimate news site. It’s just a press release from a Luddite organization that doesn’t believe in the use of anti-depressants. They claim that Albertville gunman, Tim Kretschmer was on anti-depressants and stopped taking them which in turn they say lead to his bloody shooting spree.
Except, here’s the thing. I have yet to read any report that came right out and said that Kretschmer was on any kind of mental health drug anti-depressant or otherwise. All the reports have said is that Kretschmer was undergoing treatment for depression but stopped going to his sessions. These anti-psychiatry Luddites automatically assume that the treatment must have included some kind of drug therapy. Let me tell you that someone who has been treated for depression since the early 90′s treatment for depression does not automatically mean some kind of drug therapy.
Not to mention that the Luddites can’t even get together to determine if it’s being in meds that cause these shootings or if it’s being off the meds that cause them.
Unlike the Luddites I don’t believe in conspiracies but if I did I would swear all these anti-anti-depressant organizations were fronts for a certain celebrity filled ‘church’.
