There is such a thing as being too depressed to commit suicide. Antidepressants like SSRIs were linked to increased suicide in young people, but my observation is that they became just energetic enough following treatment to attempt suicide. The drugs were not to blame so much as the process of climbing back out of dangerous levels of depression.

That has been a prevalent idea. I clipped some articles about research that the CDC has completed. Since antidepressants have been discouraged in the United States, the suicide rate, which had been falling, has begun a general increase. In the report there was a comparison of similar countries where the antidepressants continue to be prescribed and the suicide rate continues to be stable...not rising. I know this data is tentative, yet the CDC is a rather conservative group. Check out my clips on this topic.
