A modest proposal for #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth: Over 500 psych meds and other drugs can trigger suicidal impulses. Hotlines and other crisis services should ask callers about new meds or recent changes. rxisk.org/is-your-treatm…
#Crisis hotline questions about medications should be standard protocol. Ignoring treatment-induced suicidality increases the risk of avoidable deaths.
#Crisis hotline questions about medications should be standard protocol. Ignoring treatment-induced suicidality increases the risk of avoidable deaths.
MISSD frequently receives emails from #akathisia survivors and bereaved family members of those who died treatment-induced deaths stating the #medication was wrongly increased and the side effects misdiagnosed.

We can reduce #suicide by discussing treatment-induced #akathisia. Read the @RxISK strategy & ask @HHSGov @NSPA_UK @afspnational to stop the #deadly silence. Prescription drugs-even when taken as directed-can cause suicide, self harm & homicide. Silence & blind eyes kill.

Do #SuicidePrevention hotlines have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy when it comes to #pharma products? Akathisia is "an agonising disorder" @DrDavidHealy Read the article and sign the @antideprisks petition. tinyurl.com/4ms3tvnc
This excellent article shows how #akathisia can begin w/ just 1 pill and then lead to years of misdiagnoses, misery, and a harmful prescribing cascade. "There is a worrying lack of awareness among healthcare professionals about the side-effects." dailymail.co.uk/health/article…
"Exploring treatment induced PPPDs may shed light on #akathisia a lethal ‘emotional’ effect these drugs have." In many cases dizziness coincided w/ #suicidal agitation. If you think you might have PPPD, submit a report to further understanding. @RxISK rxisk.org/balancing-our-…
Prescribed Cipralex during a difficult time in life, Beth took it for 4 years w/out any doctor reviewing the continued need. Soon she developed #akathisia, "severe panic attacks, worsening anxiety & #depression. Doctors responded by increasing the drug. tinyurl.com/2jtwhsdk
ADE awareness sparks discussions about the #FourthCause of death-deaths that are preventable. We were glad to present #akathisia info at @pnetworker symposium. Check out our free online ed resources available to all 24/7. tinyurl.com/5n73nb7n #ADEchampion @AmSocietyPharm
On National Adverse Drug Event Awareness day, we remember Jake & hundreds of others who suffered ADEs & died akathisia-induced deaths. Jake's been gone 11 years: Today, are Irish parents being fully informed of #SSRI risks? tinyurl.com/7n54wenf #FourthCause, #ADEawareness
MISSD is pleased to reach thousands of clinicians attending the @pnetworker conference. Akathisia awareness is on the rise given that many attendees had some familiarity with the term compared to previous years when few had ever heard of #akathisia.
Katinka Newman, author of "The Pill that Steals Lives" runs Antidepressantrisks.org a site w/ info, resources and a "Stolen Lives" section where people can share prescribed harm experiences. Families of those who died SSRI-induced deaths can also post. tinyurl.com/temhuy2s
The selfless advocacy work of the late @christyhuffMD positively impacted countless people suffering from #benzo harms, to include #akathisia. Her work will continue helping countless more. Our condolences to @BZInfoCoalition, Christy's family & friends. tinyurl.com/2tvsdrx4

For some kids, the #asthma drug sold by @Merck can take away their final breath. #akathisia nytimes.com/2024/02/22/hea…
Polypharmacy often occurs when #akathisia is missed or misdiagnosed. When psychiatric adverse drug effects are falsely attributed to the person instead of to the #drug, prescribed harms increase. nytimes.com/2024/02/16/hea…

@MISSDFoundation @AkathisiaAlli Except DM didn’t get it right. Akathisia is NOT a “psychiatric condition.” It is adverse drug effect/iatrogenic injury, presents w cognitive, neurologic & psych symptoms. Mimics psych illness, but is not itself a psychiatric illness. This distinction is so crucial.
Everyone needs to know the word Akathisia.
@ns_explorer @AkathisiaAlli @ChrisPaigeLCSW @MISSDFoundation Hang in there. It can and does get better.
“Stop looking for experts… the best option is support groups of people who know how little they know, and also know what helped them.”
When it comes to psychotropic drug-induced problems ''like protracted withdrawal, PSSD, or drug induced akathisia, which we have known about for 7 decades but still don’t understand, for instance, it’s difficult to see how there can be experts.'' rxisk.org/treatment-comp…
@benzosarebad @gingermarmelade @ProfRobHoward Howard also has form for accusing patient safety campaigners of "grift". That's what he accused @MISSDFoundation of for their campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of #akathisia. He hates people doing what he has utterly failed to address himself.
@MISSDFoundation @Louthewarrior @recover2renew Thank you for posting!!

@woodymatters has an excellent #Suicide Prevention Month #substack article that includes profound video testimonies from medical experts & surviving family members whose loved ones' deaths were precipitated by SSRI-induced #akathisia. See (UN)Acceptable Collateral Damage.
Empire of Pain by @praddenkeefe is an incredible read, and provides a lens into corporate criminality & #institutionalcorruption. Must read for anyone trying to understand the epidemic of #overprescribing in the US and the epidemic of #opioid and #ssri prescribing #fda #reform
1/2 @MISSDFoundation billboards, posters & bus shelter adverts help communicate critical info everyone has a right to know before starting certain meds. The Ireland campaign ends this month as we observe International Akathisia Awareness Day on Sep 20th.

Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, and MISSD has co-produced the only public health video to include #akathisia as a suicide risk factor. Many #medications–even when taken as directed or discontinued–can cause violence, self-harm, and suicide. youtube.com/watch?v=2r9lcv…
