    Anti depressants

    Anybody use this or live with/work with someone who does ?

    Had a recent episode with a junior guy who behaved quite aggressively with me regarding a trivial matter. Later found he is on some medication for depression. Googling the said medication has made me nervous since it says patients tend to commit murder of someone who they think is bothering them or commit suicide.

        Don't worry. I dont need drugs to make me feel like I need to murder someone.

            I suspect, now, don't think me an expert here - that the site Google directed you to, was full of tulipe.

            'I'm going to prescribe you an anti depressant, it should work wonders on your mood - there are some known side effects;headaches, a bit of nausea, murdering sprees, you know the type. Good luck!"
            Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

                I once worked with a project manager who was on medication and had regular therapy sessions. You could tell when he’d taken his pills or had a weekend of therapy as he was reasonably calm for a few days. However, once the effect wore off he was a raging nutcase who couldn't go 5 minutes without shouting at someone.

                It's not uncommon among senior managers.

                  Either way, from his perspective, problem solved. The drugs do work!
                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!

                    Actually one of the side effects of SSRIs (the class of antidepressants that includes prozac) is that they can make people suicidal and increase aggressiveness.

                    One of my exes was on the stuff, during which time she complained of feeling suicidal and on one occasion attacked me with a breadknife. I'd like to think it wasn't just because I was a ****
                    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
