That’s only a risk during the first few weeks of trying new medication. Once people have found the right drug and adjusted to them, the risks fall back to nearly zero.

It is easy to dismiss RFK. The issue should be about guns in the possession of the mentally ill and the possibly treatment that may contribute to violence. I am from the UK btw

SSRIs are NOT the problem. Restricting them, which is exactly what he wants to do, WILL kill countless people. The USA needs gun control + a guns buy-back program to reduce their number in circulation. In parallel, they need better mental health care and to strengthen their social safety net.

Absolutely. The attack on RFK should be just that. It would be a better game plan to engage him with your points as he has raised the issue of SSRIs but no doubt the media will not pose those questions.

RFK has no qualifications for the the position he has. He should not be there. PERIOD.
