Needs references balance Hello I d like to suggest some edits I tried editing Wikipedia a long time ago and had a terrible experience and I can t even remember the protocol since it s been so long so I thought it d be safer to post suggestions here and let someone else who s more in the know roll with them if they d like to The introduction states The prescribing labels of some SSRIs note the possibility of intolerable discontinuation reactions Some patients have extreme difficulty discontinuing use of SSRI drugs Not only are these claims not referenced but they re misleading given that the vast majority of patients if they experience this syndrome do not find the reactions intolerable and don t have extreme difficulty discontinuing The introduction also says studies demonstrate statistically and clinically significant indications of difficulties with the discontinuing of SSRIs thus further espousing the difficulties of discontinuing SSRIs without balancing that with the fact that most people don t have major problems In the history section last paragraph fluoxetine is said to have the highest number of drug dependence reports The WHO site was down when I tried to check the reference so I don t know what year that report was from or whether it really says people become dependent on fluoxetine given that the quoted paragraph above this claim from WHO seems to dispute that notion but to my understanding it s generally accepted that people do not become dependent on antidepressants in the way that the general public thinks of dependence The controversy section is completely one sided Arguments from critics are explained in detail but the other sides are not There is no indication that these criticisms are from the minority or have evidence against them Overall parts of this article seem misleading to me and it concerns me because many myths and baseless fear mongering is out there about antidepressants already People who are depressed deserve to know the facts and to understand that these drugs are approved because the benefits far outweigh the risks according to mainstream medicine This is literally a life or death topic and must be handled in an unbiased manner I m obviously not arguing for side effects and concerns to be deleted I m urging for them to be presented appropriately with the weight that most experts believe they actually carryno more and no less
