He does not categorically condemn the use of anti-depressants. What he DOES do is offer some reason for skepticism on widespread use. Like it nor not, the data on mass shootings is real and ALARMING. What is most alarming is the lack of discussion in the medical literature regarding violence and self harm on these meds.
I have known a few friends who were placed on these drugs mostly for post menopausal depression and post partum depression. Guess what? There is NO OFF ramp. The people I know who were placed on them felt better for a while then felt numb and flat. Not sad, not elated, just flat. We should ALL be skeptical of adding drugs to our bodies and especially drugs for the rest of one's life. Ask questions. Read.
