I'm watching Rick Sanchez and listening to one of his panels who claims to be an expert in violent behaviour. Maybe this person is but he claims it's the depressed and not the manic that causes this.
I beg to differ, first it is very well known that manic depression has rapid cycling, both happening at the same time and my experience with depression, you do not have the energy to pick up a rifle and start on a shooting spree, this is what is known as rapid cycling and it is the manic part of this that causes the violence as your brain chemicals are in a actual fight with each other.
Having a long history of anti depressant use is not the culprit here, it may have contributed to his brain chemicals not responding properly and sending him into a rapid cycle and this is my point over and over, proper medical treatment is so important because I know many people who suffer from just the depression and anti depressants help them, but depending on the mental illness other medications need to be included, as I take and educating the public starting in the schools through diligent awareness programs, open discussions and not making those who live with this problem to made feel like an outcast.
Trust me, even living in this wonderful country I live in, being an outcast and believe it or not, right in our own medical community is a problem, something I am working on changing by implementing awareness through my business as soon as it is up off the ground with many different campaigns I already have ideas in place ready to be launched.
Family and friends need to take more action but what can they do when they live in a society where their hands are tied to take action for those loved ones for proper treatment and a government who turns their backs on those crying for help.
Oh yes, their solution spend more money in security now to keep the insane out
Here's an idea, spend money to keep the sanity in..... just a thought.
