Old Project Avalon Forum (ARCHIVE) - View Single Post - MEMORIAL DAY ~ Tribute to our Heroes ~ "All Gave Some, Some Gave All"

peaceandlove · 05-23-2009, 07:05 PM

Let's not forget the thousands (Dr. Ann Blake Tracy mentioned 11,000) of military who have taken their own lives!

This show aired last night on Coast to Coast AM

Medicated Military

In the first hour, Dr. Ann Blake Tracy discussed the widespread use of antidepressants among US combat troops. According to Tracy, as many as 90% of returning vets are taking some kind of SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) to deal with the trauma of war. She also reported on a Japanese Health Ministry study that found a causal connection between antidepressants and violence.

Tracy was joined by Stan White, who lost one son in combat and another to a lethal combination of drugs prescribed to help him cope with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. White is currently searching nationwide for other military personnel who have spontaneously died from the toxic effects of mixing antidepressants, antipsychotics, and pain medication. He can be contacted by email at hswhite2346@yahoo.com.
