Tonight I had the wonderful pleasure of being a caller on a television program on internet suicide. This was the Internet suicide case involving a young girl, Megan Meir, who committed suicide after a failed Internet romance, which later turned out to be a hoax allegedly perpetrated by an adult neighbor, Lori Drew, who posed as a 16-year-old boy on myspace.com, who did not exist.
While the panel of experts and what seems the entire world is arguing about this case is whether the adult neighbor Lori Drew should be responsible and charged with being involved in the death of this 13 year old girl. While I believe that what Lori Drew allegedly did was horrendous, I really think that Tina Meier should be looking into the pharmaceutical companies for at minimum being partially responsible for her daughter’s suicide. I know that Mrs. Meier wanted to help her child and I would never want her to feel any guilt what so ever, but I really think that these pharmaceutical companies should hold at least some responsibility for her daughter’s suicide.
These pharmaceutical drugs do exactly what they are intended to do, and many times they seem to ease the child's depression. However, the problem is that these drugs and in fact ALL medications have tremendous adverse effects, and these antidepressants in particular greatly increase the risk of suicidal tendencies. In other words, although the child may become depressed without the medication, it would be very unlikely that the child would commit suicide. The likelihood of suicide increases dramatically the moment the child begins taking antidepressants.
On the program, I stated that every single child that has been involved in a shooting or stabbing in school and in nearly every child suicide - that child was on a psychotropic drug. It has been shown that these drugs cause changes in neurons that many people would call brain-damage.
There are over 9 million children now on psychotropic drugs. In fact, in the case of Ritalin, 95% of the world's production of Ritalin is consumed by American and Canadian children.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Meier family. However, I believe in my heart, that this little girl would be alive today if it wasn't for the terrible effects brought on by these psychotropic drugs.
Depression is not due to a lack of medication – in fact studies have shown there to be an increase in serious crimes such as shootings, stabbings and suicide from those individuals on medication.
Yet there is so much you can do – such as a healthier lifestyle including:
· Exercise more
· Proper Nutrition our MaxStress B is vital, more high enzyme foods, better digestion,
· A minimum of 5 straight hours of great, deep, UNINTERRUPTED sleep
· Correct any nutritional deficiencies

· Most likely the most powerful thing that anyone could do – is to seek a specific structural correction Chiropractor to correct their spine and curves allowing the body the best chance to return to normal nerve and chemical balance
