Listen. I knew loads more than docs did back then. I could do research while they were busy being good and ditching out the new money maker.


Still, it was very early times, my depression started 13 years ago and my looking into the true effects started before that. Before most people were online.


I know it makes you mad, it made me mad too. But end of the 90s docs were clueless. There were no warnings.


I was one of the first in my country to display a certain side effect from another SSRI in 1994, it wasn't reported yet.


The type of info we have today, simply didn't exist back then. Docs only did what they were programmed to do. We were too few to be a "thing" back then. Docs listen when tons of dead bodies fall on them, and not until.


I blamed the docs. They should have known. But as I sit here I realize they were dumbed down and clueless and the huge power in this was big pharma money.


The whole warning thing happened way after I was already affected.
