I hadn't thought to do that, but ok.

The paradox for me is that I would need an SSRI to regain the brainpower necessary to do the research necessary to really look into this.
> I am very confident to say that I believe the ongoing use of SSRI's will further cause motor problems, and, indeed, Parkinsons etc
To say that you are very confident is to make quite an announcement.
I do hope you will share with us some of that evidence which has convinced you so thoroughly so that we can all make more informed adult decisions.
I don't often get to look at basic research anymore, so it will be a refreshing change for me to be directed to some of the work being done in this area and that you find relevant to your thesis. I am guessing that most of it will be over my head, though.
I understand that SSRI drugs have the potential to produce EPS as reports indicate, but with a surprisingly low rate of occurence. Are these, then, to be taken as harbingers of a large cohort of Parkinsons patients to arrive 10-20 years from now?
