Unfortunately, looking at how incompetent the FDA is, it's going to take another 20-30 years before these drugs are removed/banned from the market. At that time, everyone will claim they knew SSRIs were harming people and that these drugs are known neurotoxins. I hope I'm still alive to see it. But sadly, there will be no justice for those of us harmed by these drugs now.
I don’t think that the FDA is incompetent. I think that they are doing their job exactly. Poison us, make profits for the food and drug companies. That’s their real job. The positive changes that come through the FDA are the the people put pressure on them to make
not only are we poisoning people on mass for profit and control, the same process is poisoning marine life. The stupid, short sighted greed of capitalist neoliberalism is a danger to us all https://bigthink.com/life/what-are-dangers-eating-seafood/
I would guess that part of the reason could be guilt for having harmed their patient, and the (unconscious) desire to extinguish that guilt by denying the harm.
Yes! I started them 25 years ago in my mid twenties and people thought I was a weirdo. Now I try to warn them after 20+ years of being polydrugged and I’m still the weirdo. The days of stigmatizing are over. There has been a complete paradigm shift.
How does one find these studies that claim to prove/show there's a chemical imbalance and these meds some how improve it? I don't know where to look. Really. Thank you.

Doc, why do doctors deny pharma side effects and protracted withdrawl symptoms? Why do they gaslight?

20% of the population on these drugs! That would have been unfathomable just 20 or 30 years ago.

Here's a review article criticizing ssris: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6001865/
It discusses and cites some of the studies used to support ssri use
There are no diagnostic tests for diagnosis a chemical imbalance its based purely off of symptoms
