Suicide Treatment

How effective is mental health treatment at preventing suicide? Do psychiatric drugs actually prevent suicide? You might be surprised to find out that more than half of the suicide tracked by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention were already taking medication for mental illnesses at the time they committed suicide. The CDC has also found that treating suicidality with CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy: A type of talk therapy), resulted in higher survival rates that the medication treatments commonly prescribed by psychiatrists. Medications like Prozac, Paxil, Celexa, Zoloft and other antidepressants such as the SSRI medications are were less effective in treating suicides than talk therapy. his video was produced by Psychetruth www.youtube.com www.livevideo.com www.myspace.com Copyright 2007 Zoe Sofia.
