Guest guest Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Dear Alabama Governor Riley, As a follow-up for the replacement to former ADMH/MR Comissioner Kathy Sawyer to reopen my June 16, 2003 request for an investigation into the Madison County Mental Health Center violating my Mother's civil right to have her medication changes faxed to me and the list of all the experimetal combinations she was prescribed that were not tested by the FDA in those combinations before they were approved for human consumption that I faxed to you Monday, please note taht Effexor was one of the drugs she took. Please note this e-mail regarding the fact that persons who take Effexor have thoughts of homocide and suicide. Please be reminded that she also took Paxil and Prozac that have suicide as side effects. I pray that you will take the initiative an impliment research to document the pharmeceutical drugs which are being prescribed to suicide victims and the drug that are being consumed by the prepetators of homicide victims. I sent e-mails to Madison County Probate Judge March 10, 11, & 13, 2003 asking him how many of the Madison County residents he was commiting were already on psychiatric drugs exhibiting the abberant behavior I witnessed in my Mother that she never exhibited before taking those drug with an open records request to be informed of the number of commitments he was signing compared to his predecessor, Judge Riddick and before the Madison County Commission approved funding for the 4 full time Mental Health Officers 11/14/02. He hsa yet to respond. Will your office provide that infomation to me or ever repond to any of my e-mails? Thank you, Dr. Sandra Lance, D.C. Daughter of Alma Virginia Sanders January 14, 1927-February 6, 2002 Antidepressent Suicide Victim rom: SSRI-Research@ Tue, 1 Feb 2005 20:39:27 -0500 [sSRI-Research] Effexor {withdrawal}: Thoughts of homicide & suicide ( Ed. note: The withdrawal from some psycho active pharmacuetical drugs make withdrawal from street drugs, including heroin, look like a piece of cake. The use and withdrawal and subsequent damage may last for months or even years and in some cases is permanent.) Paragraph 10 reads: " As my liver flushed three years of toxins, my body checked that symptom list to ensure that I got them all, in mega-doses: deadly back pain, constant stun-gun shocks, endless twitching, How-I-Could-Just-Kill-a-Man anger, suicidal thoughts, ringing ears, muscle rigidity, shortness of breath and panic attacks. Like a junkie craving, raving and demanding his narcotic, I went through such horrors that at times during the 72 hours I was bedridden I considered relenting. Had the nasty pills been in my medicine chest, I most certainly would have downed them. http://www.alternet.org/drugreporter/21138/ How I Stopped Pill Popping By Matt Mernagh, NOW. Posted January 31, 2005. Perhaps serious withdrawal from antidepressants was my body's way of saying, 'Don't ever poison me like that again. More stories by Matt Mernagh Who the hell twisted my arthritic spine into a hideous, agonizing, excruciating knot? Crippled and weeping, I believed that this time it was the 10 count and I was heading for that long-promised wheelchair. My chronic debilitating pain had finally overwhelmed me - or that's what I thought. Unfortunately, Dr. Jack Kevorkian, possibly the only doctor I could trust, was still imprisoned at Michigan's Thumb Correctional Facility. The Mercitron, his self-created assisted suicide device, probably sat in some police storage locker where it couldn't be used to end my suffering. Finally I grasped the truth: all this mental and physical torture was " merely " drug withdrawal. I didn't put myself through this junkie sickness with smack or coke, but with prescription medication approved by Health Canada. After three years of crazy pill-popping to ease the pain and depression caused by my bunched-up degenerated discs, I'd decided it was time to discontinue my antidepressant, Effexor XR.
