Shutterbug, I had a cousin who committed suicide 2 years ago while on anti depressants. He shot himself. He had just graduated college with a job waiting. No one knows why he did it, and no note was left behind. He was 24.
I am not sure how long he was on this medication either, or exactly what the name of it was.
I have to agree with the Q on suicidal thoughts because of the extreme anxiety I experienced. I was sobbing and crying and feeling useless. I obviously didn't do it though.
I am learning a lot here. It's amazing what people have been through and are able to share their experience.
