I hope the US FDA will wake up and make Effexor and these other drugs illegal to give children here in the U.S. What really burns me up is that these drugs are so dangerous they're illegal to give to kids in England. But in the US, with our amazingly high dependence on drugs, and the high rates of violence and suicide in our children, that these drugs are sanctioned by the government.

If your child is on these drugs, here are some places you can go for help:

Citizens Commission on Human Rights
Fight for Kids
Youth for Human Rights
Alternative Mental Health
