Jesse Kelly of “The First” talked with Dr. Witt-Doerring on the hidden problems contributing to mental health issues, which are leading to violence.
The video opens with a clip of RFK Jr. discussing how “We are the most over-medicated nation in the world.”
“We’ve always had guns. Now we have psychos walking into schools and churches, murdering people before they blow their heads off and it’s unbelievably terrible. And we need to get to the root of the problem. What is it?” Kelly asked.
“When we look at, the, you know, what is causing mass shootings, I think there is, you know surly there is an element of mass contagion going on, but what Bobby says about these psychiatric drugs being involved is completely true,” Dr. Witt-Doerring said.
Dr. Witt-Doerring explained that medications like SSRIs in some cases can push people over the edge. In rare cases it can cause aggression and contribute to being suicidal.
“It’s hiding in plain sight. I mean, if you look at the drug labels, like you mentioned, for SSRIs, it already says that they can cause aggression and hostility. It already says that they can make people who are not suicidal, suicidal,” Dr. Witt-Doerring said.
“These drugs in rare instances, I want to say that. These are not the common effects. These are the paradoxical effects from these medications. That in rare instances, they can make some people more aggressive,” Dr. Witt-Doerring continued.
“The media never talks about this. There’s actually been several cases out there which have gone to the courts, where judges and jurors have found that these drugs have been involved in suicides and also mass homicide,” Dr. Witt-Doerring said.
“What is it that has as you said nine people can take it and maybe they are a little lethargic and the last one turns into a demon who murders Catholic school kids. How in the world can the results be so different?” Kelly asked.
Dr. Witt-Doerring explained that if someone for example, has thoughts toward murder, the medication can contribute to them acting on their thoughts.
“These drugs can have a spectrum effect, right? Let’s say for instance you already have someone who is harboring some kind of homicidal thoughts. You put them on a medication that is disinhibiting. A medication that is blunting their emotions, and this is what a lot of these medications do, especially things like SSRIs. They may be more likely to act on preexisting thoughts,” Dr. Witt-Doerring said.
“These medications can make some people so psychotic that even people who never had a hint of violence, they can actually go and do terrible things,” Dr. Witt-Doerring warned.
