But...what about the part about 'a commonly prescribed antidepressant'? I didn't seen in the article anything about that.

Did it say and I'm just not seeing it????? Or are we talking antidepressants in general?

Hmm, I found this article and it addresses antidepressants as well. Maybe that was the reference??? http://www.drugs.com/news/genes-migh...ghts-9466.html

Quote:
There is some evidence that people starting antidepressant medication can develop suicidal ideation, or suicidal thoughts and ideas, although this notion remains controversial.

In 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended that the class of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) carry a strong "black box" warning on the label outlining the possibility of an increase in suicidal ideation. SSRIs include widely used drugs such as Celexa, Paxil, Prozac and Zoloft.

The black box warning was based on studies that found that 4 percent of the group taking SSRIs had suicidal ideation, compared with 2 percent of the group taking a placebo.
And boy howdy, they should include Cymbalta with that group as far as I'm concerned!

I really find this to be very interesting!! I don't do well on AD's and have dealt with suicidal attempts and ideation since I was a child, and know it is not just due to childhood trauma.
