while paxil is not a drug i have taken, the right to speak up about these drugs is a matter that concerns me! (one drug i did just detox off of gsk lamictal) ok, so the use of their logo may be an issue, but the story this video conveys…GSK hid suicidality issues and bob, a patient and blogger, responded with a thoughtfully made video, but GSK threatened legal action.
i am posting this to show my solidarity for bob. if you want to post it on your blog it can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odAcIY6I_do

Hey,
There’s a movement afoot to circulate the video as widely as possible:

if you feel inclined, it’d be great if you could link in the rest of the (known) blogs that carry the story – I’m guessing that you’ve got a different readership to the rest of us!

thanks guys! i will direct readers to your links…this is great…all the support for bob f. is outstanding!
I got absolute chills and shivers up my spine. I have been so disgusted in the politics of Psychiatry and pharmecuticals. I have killed myself, personality and thru my organs will the trial and error of prescribed medicines. just like women who enjoy their looks without make-up i enjoy myself without medications that are anti-psychotics or anti-convulsents. I have had suicidal thoughts on seroquel and have been off of it for two and a half years. I was diagnosed Bipolar and only believed Lithium could help but knew of the toxic effects of that “natural salt”? I then went on to believe that this was better, until the side effects. All I can say Is never again do I trust my body and mind over to these drug pushing Doc’s. I have had it with thei Pharmy favors and the kick-backs they recieve. I support Bob, and I support all of us who can combat the inhume treatment of our so called Madness. We are truely up against an evil force, The Happy Pill Pushers. A horror movie
