Allen Frances, CNN TV, antidepressants

It seems Allen Frances knows this subject can be suppressed no longer.  No research into withdrawal, can take many years, many patients stuck on the drugs for life.  Longer term adverse effects on brain unknown.  I am so very pleased he has spoken out, UK psychiatry remains in denial.

A good interview.

First real statement said, anti depressants are not really as addictive as cocaine or BENZOS!!!!!!

Yes, it is very refreshing indeed but now he is tweeting that patients who want to get off antidepressants should talk to their MD!!  Why does he think we are all online?

A little bit of back peddling with some CYA thrown in?
