[2008] Mental Health: It's Life, Not Depression by Dr. Julian Whitaker

[2007] Reported suicides - more than 80 percent got psychiatric drugs, well over 50 percent got antidepressants This information has been concealed by senior (psychiatric) officials at the National Board of Health and Welfare. It was contrary to the best interests of Big Pharma and biological psychiatrists. It blew the myths of antidepressants and neuroleptics as suicide protecting drugs to pieces. It would also have hurt the career of many medical journalists to take up this subject; journalists who for years have made their living by writing marketing articles about new antidepressant drugs. So nothing has been written about this in major media in Sweden.

[2009 Oct UK] Doctors under fire as an alarming numbers of children are given drugs to combat depression and ADHD  Over 420,000 prescriptions were issued to children under 16 with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in 2007 - up 33 per cent since 2005. The number went up 51 per cent for youngsters aged 16-18, reaching 40,000 in 2007.
    During this period NHS guidance endorsed at least three drugs for ADHD where other treatments have failed, despite fears about side effects and some critics complaining it medicalises antisocial behaviour.
    More than 113,000 prescriptions of antidepressants were issued to children under 16 in 2007, a six per cent increase over two years.
    Almost 108,000 antidepressant prescriptions went to 16-18-year-olds, which was unchanged over the period.
    Over 86,000 prescriptions for anti-psychotics - powerful tranquiliser drugs - were issued to children under 18 in 2007.
